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.
Dr Priya Atwal will be delivering a talk at the Nissan lecture theatre in St Antony’s college where she will detail the rise and fall of the Sikh empire.
Dr Priya Atwal is a historian at the University of Oxford. Her book, Royals and Rebels: the Rise and Fall of the Sikh Empire, was published in 2020. Her research specialises in the study of monarchy and empire in Britain and South Asia, and she has a long-standing interest in the history of the Sikhs and Punjab. Priya was President of the Sikh Society from 2009-10, and SikhSoc was where she first learned about the history of the Sikh Empire, so she is very excited about this special event!
This event is in collaboration with the Midlands-based charity Unite in Virtue which aims to feed, council, and support those in need. The charity has expanded over the last few years, serving a greater number of people with hot meals and the occasional clothes donation.
