OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
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
related to peace building/post-conflict in Colombia.
