On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Most of the knowledge on disability has been produced in the Global North, despite the majority of disabled people being in the Global South. Not only is disability higher in these countries and its effects exacerbated by the sociopolitical conditions, infrastructure and attitudes to disability, but disability also arises as a direct result of conflict and armed violence. The link between conflict, disability and access to education has been relatively under- examined. This talk draws on the work of my GCRF-AHRC funded Disability Under Siege Network Plus Programme (disabilityundersiege.org ) working with partners in Jordan, Lebanon and Palestine, addressing the fundamental challenge that most children with disability in the region never go to school.
