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.
Tom Kelsey, the Humanities and Public Policy Officer within the Oxford Policy Engagement Network (researchsupport.admin.ox.ac.uk/open) will lead a session about policy engagement for DPhil and early career historians. He will outline the workings of the policy world, discuss the ways in which historians have policy impact, and reflect on his own experiences at the interface of policy and academia. Tom, who has a PhD in History, has worked with leading think-tanks such as the Resolution Foundation and the Institute for Government. Previous to his current post, he was an ESRC Policy and Research Fellow at the Blavatnik School of Government working with civil servants from the Cabinet Office.
