Introduction
Many of our events involve hosting or facilitating private academic groups, particularly within our areas of specialisation. – We invite you to contact us if you'd like help, especially where a welcoming, neutral context would encourage your discussions to flow more readily.

In addition, we offer regular presentations for the general public, and, from time to time, open colloquia for the wider academic community.

Our public presentations give both an overview of a subject as well as an analysis of areas of current debate, whilst our open academic colloquia aim specifically to invite international leaders in the field who have yet to have the chance to meet in person.
