On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Calls to recalibrate the balance between paid and unpaid care have been evident since the 1990s. In the intervening years, the balance has shifted consistently in the opposite direction to that demanded by early commentators, leading to grossly exploitative and unsatisfactory conditions of care. In this unpromising context what potential exists for the development of equitable and effective relations between paid and unpaid care?
This question will be explored by Professor Liz Lloyd of Bristol University, who will discuss contemporary ideas that challenge the damaging legacy of policies and practices and suggest ways in which unpaid care might be reconceptualised as part of the social care system.
This event is part of Green Templeton’s long-running Care Initiative, led by Professor Mary Daly. The in-person talk will be followed by a short drinks reception. The talk will also be streamed live as a Zoom webinar.
