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 Devries will discuss research she has conducted over her career, including producing the first estimates on the global prevalence of intimate partner violence against women, conducting randomised trials of interventions to prevent violence against women and children, and the challenges inherent in conducting this research in a safe and ethical way.
