OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Adaptation to Climate Change
This meeting provides an introduction to Adaptation to Climate Change through a series of short talks. While Adaptation is commonly discussed in consultancy and academic circles it is not always well understood to people outside of these realms.
This talk hopes to attract people who are interested in climate change and the environment, and would like to know more on the subject of adaptation.
Hosted by Dr Helen Gavin of the ECI, and chaired by Hazel Dawe of the Oxfordshire Green Party, we are pleased to have the following speakers:
*ECI: Dr Mike Simpson will talk on Green Infrastructure
*ECI: Dr Julian Cottee will speak on Food Systems
*Low Carbon Hub: TBC
The format will comprise an introduction followed by 3 × 20min talks with a ~30 minute discussion afterward. Please feel free to arrive from 6:30pm.
