Magdalen’s Calleva Centre has jointly sponsored a new seminar series to explore the unprecedented challenges facing global security today.
Leading academics and policymakers from around the world will come together to discuss a range of subjects including artificial intelligence, biotechnology, cyber operations, hybrid threats, regional safe havens, and counter-terrorism.
The series aims to deepen our understanding of the underlying drivers that shape contemporary global instability and ask how we might face them in the future.
The first seminar will be given by Lord Hague of Richmond, Chancellor of the University of Oxford, drawing on his extensive experience in international relations and security.
