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.
Professor Lord Nicholas Stern of Brentford will deliver the 8th Annual Oxford Fulbright Distinguished Lecture in International Relations on ‘The best of centuries or the worst of centuries? Leadership, governance and cohesion in an interdependent world’.
The international economic order, which William Fulbright helped to build after the second World War, served fairly well for much of the second half of the last century, but it must be re-cast for our increasingly interdependent world if we are to avoid the grave risks we face, including climate change, pandemics and conflict. If we do, and this will require both leadership and collaboration, we could create a very attractive future, the best of centuries. If not, the destruction which could follow, could take us to the worst of centuries.
The lecture will be followed by a drinks reception.
