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

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.
