David N. Lyon Lecture: “Conflicting compassion: diversity in gender and sexuality in the modern world”
During Pride Month, Oriel College is delighted to present the 2023 David N Lyon Lecture on the Politics of Sex and Gender in Diverse Societies.

One day ahead of the meeting of the College of Bishops to discuss same-sex marriage in the Church of England, we invite a panel including the Rt Revd Dr Steven Croft, Lord Bishop of Oxford to explore identity, politics and faith.
