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
Oral History Training Workshop
This event is open to all members of the History Faculty (including PS staff), as well as local historians who may be interested in an introductory/brush-up session about oral history methods and applying for research ethics clearance from the University. The session will be run by three researchers who are highly experienced in using oral history practice for their own projects: Dr Aleena Din, Dr Sally Frampton and Sadiya Ahmed.
Aleena Din and Sadiya Ahmed are both joint leads on the Hub’s ‘A Muslim History of Oxford’ project, and have been working with a group of research assistants to record a number of oral history interviews with members of the local Muslim community, to grow a community-based archive of British Muslim histories.
Sally Frampton is a historian of medicine and health, who has recently been working with local mental health charities such as Restore and Oxfordshire Recovery College, to train charity workers to document and share the history of local mental health care treatment through co-produced oral history research and a short documentary film.
They will all be sharing their knowledge and experience of good practice through a talk, which will be followed by a Q&A and a chance to discuss ideas/experiences shared by participants themselves.
