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
At SoGE, we use systems thinking in varied forms to understand the complex dynamics of human-environment interactions. Our research has a broad range, spanning across water, food, energy, biodiversity, climate, marine protection and other areas – with cross-cutting themes of economic and social justice. The work is highly interdisciplinary within projects, but ongoing knowledge exchange between research groups is challenging. At this workshop we will come together to celebrate and strengthen the use of systems thinking and systems tools at SoGE. The SOGE research showcase will include presentations from the ECI Ecosystems Lab, the Oxford Seascape Ecology Lab, the Complex Human-Environmental Systems Simulation Lab, the Food Systems Transformation Programme, the REACH Water Security Programme, the SOGE Water Research Programme, the Energy Research Programme, and the Economics of Environmental Change Group. In the afternoon, we will be joined by systems-thinking leaders from the UK government to discuss the use of systems-based research in environmental governance decision-making.
