OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Anurag Devkota is a human rights lawyer based in Kathmandu, Nepal. He is an incoming Global Criminal Justice Fellow at the University of Oxford’s Faculty of Law. Anurag will deliver a seminar on how his strategic litigation work pushed for progressive reforms in Nepal’s labour migration regime. His address will focus on examples involving the tragic deaths of Nepali migrant workers in GCC nations, their plight in GCC jails due to a lack of legal representation, and the potential for sentence transfer mechanisms based on the ruling of the Supreme Court of Nepal. He will also discuss the accountability of sending countries such as Nepal, as well as how out-of-country voting rights would advance the argument for establishing accountability in home countries.
