The events will showcase a range of innovative local historical projects run by\, or in partnership with\, community historians. \n\n\n\nParticipants will learn about the latest new research being conducted on Oxfordshire’s diverse histories\, as well as gain new skills that could help shape personal project ideas. \n\n\n\nOn 21 November\, participants are invited to a workshop offering guidance on conducting oral history interviews and planning their own research projects. The session will cover key topics such as project planning\, research ethics\, and interview techniques\, and is open to both beginners and experienced researchers. \n\n\n\nThe session will be led by two Oxford academics who have extensive experience in researching sensitive historical themes using oral history research methods: \n\n\n\n\nDr Sally Frampton has been working with a range of community mental health organisations (including Restore\, Oxfordshire Recovery College\, and My Life\, My Choice) to develop a long view of the changing nature of mental health treatment across the county. Her team has developed a number of free resources based on their research\, including an oral history archive and teaching resources for schools\, which you can find online via the Oxford Health Histories website.\n\n\n\nDr Suzan Meryem Kalayci thinks and writes about silence in history\, with a particular focus on the events of the Armenian Genocide\, for which she has won several awards. She explores the notions of memory and affect within her work on oral and cultural history.\n\n\n\n\nThe event is free and everyone is welcome\, but please note that the number of spaces available is limited\, so do book in advance.
