Weidenfeld Debates

The Weidenfeld Debates are an annual programme of public debates, organized by the Weidenfeld Scholars, which focus on major questions in contemporary international public policy. The aim of this programme is to contribute to the academic discussions at Oxford by providing a unique interdisciplinary, cross-cutting and policy-oriented approach to current issues. The Debates have thus far addressed an array of themes ranging from the financial crisis to the cultural diversity of contemporary Islam.
