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
On 13-14 May, over 130 countries came together in Berlin for the UN Peacekeeping Ministerial to discuss the future of peacekeeping and to make concrete pledges to fund and support it. This panel will look at the outcomes of the Ministerial in the wider context of current international political and financial turbulence. It will consider: – How geopolitical tensions are impacting UN peacekeeping – What specific challenges the UN is facing and whether and how it can adapt to them – How key conflicts can be addressed going forward – What we can learn from member state engagement at the Ministerial
