OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Africa Re-Imagined

“Life more abundant” was a major commitment of the anti-colonial movement. Today, entrenched autocracies, militant Islamism, military coups,
domestic warfare, forced migration and the morphing of external intervention overshadow fragile progress in democracy and development. Frank
assessment needs to be conducted on why the outcomes have differed so much from the aspirations.
Richard Joseph will share ideas on an appropriate academic response to these issues, and areas where there may be hope.
This event will be available to join in-person, and streamed online.
