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
This discussion aims to explore the full spectrum of gender equality in Oxford and how it has evolved since women were first admitted to Merton College. Three pioneering women in academia will share the challenges they faced during their careers and personal journeys, and reflect on the progress that has been made – what have been the triumphs for women?
The panel will also think about less frequently asked, but equally important, questions: are there any advantages that have arisen as a result of being a woman in male-dominated fields? Were there any challenges they did not face which their male peers did? And how will changing ideas about gender shape universities and academia as we look to the future?
