Oxford International Relations Society

We were founded in 2009 with the aim of reaching the Oxford community and beyond with relevant IR-related knowledge and debates. Since then, we have delivered and continue to deliver the arguments of scholars, policy-makers, diplomats, and journalists through speaker events on wide-ranging and multi-disciplinary topics. We also host regular socials with the local community through our flagship debate event Rum & Realpolitik every academic term.
