OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Black History Month Lecture: Overcoming Barriers and Achieving Your Full Potential - A Personal Journey
This lecture will focus on the journey of a lawyer and antiracist practitioner who is a champion of Adult Learning and Professional Development who arrived in the UK as a migrant in 1993. It covers her experiences of racism, overcoming obstacles, personal and professional development to becoming the first Black African Commissioner to the Commission of Racial Equality, the First Black African Specialist Policy Adviser on Equalities to the Welsh Government and a trustee to the UALL. This lecture will challenge listeners to strive to achieve their full potential and explore themes of the impact of adult learning and resilience in the face of difficulties. As Cicily Tyson says, “Dare to Dream, Audacious Dreams”.
