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
In this talk, Dr. Lobsang Sangay, former head of the Tibetan administration in exile and a prominent scholar of international law and democracy, explores the challenges faced by exiled democratic movements in a rapidly changing geopolitical landscape. Drawing on his own experience, Dr. Sangay will reflect on how Europe can engage with and support democratic governance beyond its borders, balancing values, diplomacy, and strategic interests. The discussion will touch upon questions of legitimacy, resilience, and Europe’s moral and political responsibility in defending democratic ideals worldwide.
