OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk

As the live audience, you can ask a question anytime during the webinar by typing in the chat or Q&A dialogue box within the ZOOM platform.
Our series’ convenors are Professor Faisal Devji (Faculty of History) and Dr Usaama al-Azami (Faculty of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies) at the University of Oxford.
Our format – guests present for 20 minutes, one after the other and the Q&A discussion follows for around 45 minutes.
We are grateful to our guests for giving us permission to record the live webinars – our Programme Manager edits the recordings and the edited production becomes a podcast episode in our podcast series.
