We invite you to consider whether witnesses to crimes can really remember 'the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth'.

In this interactive event, hosted by the Forensic Cognition Research Group, you will learn about research into attention, memory, and suggestibility. You will discover what witnesses can and can't do, and also learn how psychology and technology are being used together to improve police investigations and help witnesses to give the best possible evidence.

An event organised by the International Centre for Comparative Criminological Research (ICCCR).

Speaker: Prof Graham Pike

Convenor: Dr Gemma Briggs

Registration: This event is open to anyone over the age of 18. There is no registration fee but spaces are limited, please book early to avoid disappointment.

Cities are complex and dynamic spaces where culture, environment and politics intersect in fascinating ways. This workshop brings together Open University geographers for a conversation on this interplay. The workshop will be of interest to anyone working in urban studies.

2013 OECD-Universities Joint Conference 'Economics for a Better World'.

The third international conference of economists interested in welfare economics and public policy broadly defined. This conference will follow those organised in Oxford (July 2009) and Paris (July 2011). The 2013 OECD-Universities Joint Conference will be informed by the work done over the past decade by economists, statisticians and social analysts to develop broad measures of well-being, and touch on some of the well-being dimensions included in recent OECD reports on the subject. The conference will feature roundtables, plenary sessions and contributed research papers on the wide range of issues that matter to the economics of human well-being. It will include three major strands: policy and empirical economics; economic theory; and econometrics. The conference may also include sessions on other relevant social sciences.

The conference is organised by the OECD, University of Oxford and The Open University.
