Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
We will have the honour to host Wolfson alumnus and Rhodes Scholar Wes Moore for an interview followed by an open Q&A session on Thursday Jan 28th at 7 pm. Wes, a New York Times bestselling author, has done remarkable work for the Black community and is currently CEO for the Robin Hood Foundation in New York City, one of the largest antipoverty non-profits in the nation. The event will focus on Wes’ new book Five days, an account on the days leading up to the police brutality protests in Baltimore. The conversation will be opened by President Sir Tim Hitchens and Welfare Officer Lesley Nelson-Addy will guide through the interview and discussion.
