We are pleased to present our Seminar Series for Hilary Term 2025! People make sense of the world through #stories, combining narrative threads into more or less coherent depictions of reality. #Storytelling about migration is evident from prehistoric artefacts found in ancient sources ranging from petroglyphs to bible stories. Convened by Rob McNeil, this series will examine how #narrative - whether it be news, fiction, political speeches or social media posts - shape how we think about #migration, considering what we can do to measure, visualise, and help societies assess and respond to migration narratives in public #debate. In collaboration with @KelloggOx. Join us! All seminars in this series will be held in person at Kellogg College OX2 6PN and online via zoom. Attendance is free. All are welcome. Register your space👉

What does migration have to do with football? A fascinating read in @BBCSport on St Kitts and Nevis, the Windrush generation, and what heritage means for one young player. Recommended by COMPAS' @CVar_Sil ⚽
Example of plenty of connections between migration and football. Cole Palmer: Made in the Caribbean.
