Research Events

The University of Cambridge, as a world-leading education and research institution, is fully committed to the principle, and to the promotion, of freedom of speech and academic freedom within the law. 

An active speaker programme is fundamental to the academic and other activities of the University, and staff and students are encouraged to invite a wide range of speakers and to engage critically but courteously with them. Event attendees are advised that the hosting of external speakers does not constitute endorsement of the views shared.
