The Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø Events blog launched on 15 March, with a review and video footage of the sell-out 2011 Rickman Godlee lecture by Noam Chomsky on 'Contours of Global Order'.

The blog aims to cover a wide variety of the events held at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø, and provide an interactive, informal channel for feedback on and discussion about lectures, exhibitions and many more activities. It was devised in response to research with students, staff and other visitors to the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø news page.

The blog also currently features blog posts covering:

  • the origins of the 'ndrangheta of Calabria, Italy's most powerful mafia: Lunch Hour Lecture by Professor John Dickie (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø Italian)
  • the Earth bites back: Lunch Hour Lecture by Professor Bill McGuire (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø Earth Sciences) on the possible relationship between climate change and catastrophic geological events
  • the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø Entrepreneurship Guest Lecture Series, organised by Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø Advances
  • a reception for the Provost's Circle, individuals who have pledged a gift of £1,000 or more to Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍøÌý
  • lectures by Sir Gus O'Donnell, Britain's most senior civil servant, and by Lord Phillips, President of the Supreme Court, hosted by the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø Constitution Unit
  • ecomuseums, sustainabillity and communities: guest lecture by Peter Davis of the International Centre for Cultural and Heritage Studies.
