OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.

Maha Al-Haddad is a PhD candidate at the Centre of Development Studies at the University of Cambridge, where she has also earned her MPhil degree. Her research examines Black- American and Palestinian solidarity networks as they develop and strengthen within the contemporary day, focusing on the commonalities and joint struggles that emerge from shared experiences of racialised violence and which underpin renewed solidarity efforts.
