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.

Narratives for Peace: Lessons from Colombia
How might testimonies of violence contribute to truth, justice, and reconciliation in Colombia
and beyond? This day-long workshop will explore this question through three activities. We will
kick off the morning with a graduate student paper workshop with DPhil students working on
topics related to peace building/post-conflict in Colombia. The afternoon will begin with a
virtual dialogue with former FARC combatants, Professor Gonzalo Sánchez—former head of
Colombia’s National Center for Historical Memory, and audience members. The discussion will
be followed by a keynote address by Sergio Jaramillo, former High Commissioner for Peace.
Event schedule:
10am-12:30pm: Graduate student paper workshop with DPhil students working on topics
