As part of Oxford Refugee Week, and the wider National Refugee Week, Oxford City Amnesty Group are holding a special edition of their monthly meeting and inviting local and national guests to speak about the humanitarian crisis in Syria, the UK government's response to date and how cities such as Oxford have the power to directly support some of the most vulnerable of Syrian refugees. Professor Dawn Chatty will speak at this event together with Amnesty UK's Country Co-ordinator for Syria, Hannah Slater, to set the situation in context.

See the Oxford Refugee Week website for details of other events in the Oxford area, and the National Refugee Week website for events across the UK.
