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
Promoting Transboundary Water Management: Opportunity for Change and Stability
Status: This talk is in preparation - details may change
EcoPeace’s work is focused on a fairer sharing of water resources and a coordinated response to water scarcity in the region (Israel, Jordan and Palestinian Territories). Mitigating the destabilizing economic and social impacts of water scarcity is dependent on effective and cooperative water management in this region. Developing the political will for such cooperation requires a widespread understanding that all people interdependently rely on our shared environment. Awareness from all sides of these shared water resources’ constraints and sensitivities is a prerequisite for understanding and addressing the threats to the viability of all groups in the region.
