OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Transitional Leadership Insights from Afghanistan: Dr. Sima Samar
Delivered via Zoom
Transitional Leadership Insights from Afghanistan: Dr. Sima Samar,
State Minister for Human Rights and International Affairs; former Chairperson of the Independent Afghan Human Rights Commission; Vice President of the Interim Administration and Minister of Women’s Affairs in 2001-2002, during which she established Afghanistan’s first Ministry of Women’s Affairs.
A medical doctor from the oppressed Hazara minority group, she fled Afghanistan when her husband was ‘disappeared’ during the Russian occupation and became a refugee in Pakistan. She is the Founder of Shuhada, an NGO which runs 55 schools across Afghanistan and 3 for refugees in Pakistan, and which ran underground classes for girls in Kabul during the Taliban regime. She is the Laureate of the ‘Right Livelihood Award’ or ‘Alternative Nobel’ Prize, and innumerable other global awards for justice, human rights, peace and health, and has received two honorary doctorates from Brown University and University of Alberta.
