OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Millions of people are facing humanitarian crises after years of warfare and instability. As the International Committee of the Red Cross marks its 160th year of humanitarian action, its President Mirjana Spoljaric describes the challenges posed by contemporary armed conflicts. Mandated through the Geneva Conventions, the Committee works to ensure humanitarian protection and assistance, taking action in response to emergencies as a neutral, impartial and independent organisation.
