The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
On 15 November 2023, leaders of the European Union (EU) and 79 states in Africa, the Caribbean, and the Pacific (ACP) will meet in Samoa to sign the successor to the Cotonou Agreement, which will govern their relations for at least 20 years across various policy areas, namely development, migration, environment and climate change, peace and security, human rights and democracy, trade and investment. Drawing on a wide range of literature strands and capitalising on his active engagement with the two negotiating teams, Professor Carbone will expose the different logics and dynamics that characterised the making of the Samoa Agreement, from the contentious adoption of the two negotiating mandates to the impasse arising from the obstructive behaviour of two EU Member States after the conclusion of the negotiations.
Chair: Othon Anastasakis, St Antony’s College, University of Oxford
