Fireside Chat with Lord William Hague
Join Oxford University International Relations Society for a fascinating talk with Lord William Hague (Magdalen), chairman of the Royal Foundation. Lord Hague will reflect on the future of foreign policy, the prospects for the UK, the implications of rapid advances in science and technology, and the crucial role of Oxford in the next decade.

Lord Hague’s talk draws from his extensive experiences as the former Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs (2010-14) and First Secretary of State for Prime Minister David Cameron (2010-15). From 1997 to 2001, he served as Leader of the Conservative Party and Leader of the Opposition whilst Tony Blair was Prime Minister.

The long and distinguished career has led Lord Hague back to the University of Oxford, where he is now a candidate for the position of Chancellor in the upcoming election.

This event is open to all students, staff, and alumni of the University of Oxford. Pre-registration on Eventbrite is strongly recommended. Members of Oxford University International Relations Society are cordially invited to a drink reception prior to the event.
