About the film:

The unprecedented challenges that face the world – climate catastrophe, overpopulation, rapid technological expansion, extreme inequality, nuclear terrorism – require radical rethinking to find effective and timely solutions. A need to inspire some of the world's best minds to work together to understand and address these problems prompted Dr James Martin's vision to establish the Oxford Martin School at the University of Oxford.

This new film, Revolution in Oxford, was produced and directed by Dr James Martin. It shows how novel ideas and interdisciplinary collaborations fostered by the Oxford Martin School are not only changing Oxford University, but also the world. Through candid interviews with the academics involved, James Martin reveals some of the latest insights and new approaches to addressing some of humanity’s most intractable questions.

There’s an exciting revolution in Oxford. How will it change your future?

Further details: This event will be followed by a conversation with Dr James Martin and Professor Ian Goldin, Director of the Oxford Martin School. There will also be an opportunity for questions from the audience.

Venue: T S Eliot Theatre, Merton College, Rose Lane, Oxford
