Background on the conference:
The ESU International Relations Conference will deal with a
variety of issues relating to both International Relations
and to Britain’s international role in the world today.
The aim of the conference is to give participants the opportunity
to expand their knowledge of Britain and to widen their outlook
on world issues.
It also offers a unique opportunity to make individual contacts
with people from various fields, cultures and backgrounds.
In 2006, 31 delegates attended the conference and they represented
a total of 25 countries. The majority of delegates were young
professionals from the fields of trade and industry, law, journalism,
teaching and the diplomatic service.
The conference is an annual event and has taken place annually
for over 40 years. The venue has traditionally been one of
the colleges in Oxford and in 2007, as in the last fourteen
years, it will be held in Oriel.

Sir Andrew Burns KCMG, International Governor on the Board
of the BBC, Lord Watson of Richmond CBE, Chairman, Burson-Marsteller
