❗️CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS ARE OPEN❗️ Hey everyone! OMER will be hosting a Baklava and Board Games Night today (Wed 5th February) in St Antony’s at 7pm. ❗️CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS ARE NOW OPEN ❗️ After a successful launch party earlier last month, the Oxford Middle East Review is proud to announce that Vol 8 of our journal, ‘In Flux’, is now available online! Want to learn more about the journal, the application process, or simply need a mid-week wine-down? ❗️APPLICATIONS ARE NOW OPEN ❗️ “While 2023 marked something of an end to the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, this peace could very well be precarious, and has not come without cost to Armenians or Azerbaijanis.” “And time and time again, Palestinians unequivocally remind us that a world without them is a world that accepts oppression, evil and greed. This truth invites those who wish to build a new world to dismantle the meaningless statues that claim to represent democracy erected centuries ago in emblematic cities, along with the systems that work to uphold them, and to stand with Palestine in their one-hundred-year battle for liberation.” “As projects to prepare Istanbul for a future earthquake claim a crucial place in the mayoral candidates’ campaigns, Ece Çiftçi believes that the success of larger-scale projects lies in addressing local needs. Individuals and institutions at the grassroots can raise issues that bigger institutions cannot see – as demonstrated by SosyalBen’s Youth Volunteerism in Disaster Workshop Report. Therefore, the foundation aims to get people to think locally and give them the courage to take action.”
