Thanks to everyone who joined us this week at our Sheldonian Series event on the power of activism — great discussion and engagement from our audience of students, staff, alumni and the general public ox.ac.uk/news/2026-02-0…

Thanks to students and staff who joined us for a great event yesterday on equality, diversity and freedom of speech

Australians often think of their nation as a sanctuary from the world’s troubles — the Bondi terror attack may signal the end of that sense of national exceptionalism. My piece for @NewStatesman newstatesman.com/world/australa…

Horrific scenes at Bondi Beach. Mass shootings are rare in Australia. Thoughts are with everyone affected, and with Australia’s Jewish community. There must be no place for hatred and violence

Great discussion this week about British public attitudes about equality and diversity, w @Anouschka_Rajah, Luke Bretherton and Iyiola Solanke. More on our report (conducted by @UniofOxford, @UCLPolicyLab + @Moreincommon_), Finding common Ground, here ox.ac.uk/news/2025-09-2…

What a great way to kick off our Sheldonian Series @UniofOxford this week. A great panel on cancel culture with Zoe Williams, Toby Young, Sunder Katwala and Helen Mountfield. Thanks to the 500+ students, staff, alumni and community members who joined us. Photo credit: John Cairns

Great panel yesterday organised by the Oxford Student Union as part of their activities for Black History Month

This Review Article of four recent collections with about 70 chapters by about 50 authors shows that - despite whats happening in the world - there is a revival of the political theory of multiculturalism, at least in Anglophone countries.

What is the state of multiculturalism? A review essay from me for @EthnicitiesSAGE journal

Wonderful to meet so many freshers this week at Oxford. We’ve delivered inductions on equality, diversity and inclusion to approx 3,000 students in 24 colleges. We want students to have inclusive experience guided by community, kindness and pluralism. Welcome freshers!

NEW: We’re honoured to be ranked number one in the @timeshighered World University Rankings for the tenth consecutive year. 👏

The Stephen A. Schwarzman Centre, a new world-class centre for the Arts and @OxHumanities will open to the academic community on 13 October 2025 🏛️✨ A public cultural programme hosted by the Centre will begin in April 2026. 🧵 [1/6]

Thanks to everyone who came to our panel discussion on culture wars and EDI at Labour Party conference yesterday — it was a great discussion

Enjoyed the discussion of our latest research on EDI at Labour Party Conference chaired by @AvaSantina . Highlights ⬇️

Our report on British public attitudes on equality, diversity and inclusion -- out today. A majority of Britons still believe EDI is a good thing; and Britons have a limited desire to follow the US path in cutting back diversity initiatives ox.ac.uk/node/8794296

Congratulations to our Dr John Yu Fellows 2025 — a wonderful three days in Sydney with our 7th cohort of amazing leaders. Thanks to Ben Law for joining our dinner, to my co-director Clinton Free and to Dr John Yu after whom this program is named
