Reflection circle with Bogáta Bongya

This Reflection Circle with Bogata (urban development London) will explore the hidden wellbeing cost of always being alert, and how safety is often treated as an individual responsibility rather than a collective one.

Together, we’ll reflect on our lived experiences of Oxford, share insights, and imagine what a more inclusive, connected, and supportive city for women could look like. This will be a gentle, interactive space—less about fixing problems, more about connection, care, and community. We’ll focus on how to grow together as a community: from walks and reflection circles to mutual support, rest, and solidarity.

03:00 PM - 04:00 PM
Panel discussion: building a safer city for all women and femmes.
