Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Katherine Brickell (King’s College London) and Mel Nowicki (Oxford Brookes University) will discuss their new book Debt Trap Nation: Family Homelessness in a Failing State (Agenda Publishing, 2025), which examines how austerity, welfare reform and housing policy are driving family homelessness in Britain. We’re delighted that Christina de Bellaigue (History) and Josefina Jaureguiberry Mondion (Geography) will join the panel.
