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
Education in Exile: Palestinians Schooling, 1948–1967
Mezna Qato is junior research fellow in history at King’s College, Cambridge. She is completing a book on the history of education for Palestinians in the aftermath of the 1948 war. Her work revolves around three themes: social histories of Palestinian and Arab exile, the politics and practice of archives, and comparative settler colonialism. Her next project is a history of Palestinians in Haiti. She is a founding committee member of the Librarians and Archivists with Palestine, an editorial board member of the Middle East Research and Information Project, and co-author of An Arab Left Reader (forthcoming). Her most recent artwork, a scorebook on life in exile, was recently in exhibition at the 16th Venice Biennale.
