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.
In this lecture Fiona Williams will explain how care as practice, as policy, as ethic, and as transnational dynamic lends itself to a critical intersectional perspective. She will look at care as an area of crisis at different scales – local, national, transnational and global – which is marked by two key dynamics: the longstanding devaluation of care as practice, work and ethic, and (following Rai) the depletion of support, resources and time to enable people’s capacity to care and be cared for. However, these dynamics are also caught up in two other global crises: of climate change and of racial (in)justice. Drawing on intersectionality as praxis, she will argue that understanding these intersections is an important basis for creating the necessary conceptual and political alliances for progressive transformation.
