Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
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.
