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.

Professor Janina Dill delivers the inaugural lecture for the Dame Louise Richardson Chair in Global Security at the Blavatnik School of Government.
Global Security: Is Law Our Last Hope?
We are living through a crisis of global security, with armed conflicts multiplying and escalating. International law seems as relevant as it seems ineffective in addressing these challenges. Can international law de-escalate conflicts and protect civilians? The lecture will highlight political and doctrinal obstacles to securing the globe by means of law. And yet without the rule of law, we have no hope of global security at all.
The lecture is followed by a drinks reception.
