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
The global refugee crisis and what to do about it
This event and the waiting list is now full – but the lecture will be live online with the link above.
At a time of heightened political tension and policy confusion about the refugee crisis, this lecture will explore why record numbers of people are fleeing their homes; what conditions they are living in; and what should be done to help them.
Rt Hon David Miliband will make the case that support for refugees is a global public good, which requires reform of international policy. He will also argue that winning the argument for supporting refugees is vital to the moral standing of western societies which constructed the international order after World War 2.
