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
This is an important time to be a geography teacher. Climate breakdown and biodiversity collapse are the biggest issues of our time, and ones that today’s young people are going to face throughout their lives. Education, wide and fast, is necessary if humans are going to turn the situation around in the coming decade, to enable human survival into the 22nd century. Today’s teenagers are going to be entering the workplace and taking the reins through the biggest changes human civilisation has seen. Will they be ready? And what can today’s geography teachers, with powerful opportunities with the existing curriculum, do to prepare them?
Venue: Online
Time/Date: Wednesday 12 February 2025, 16:15-17:30pm
For: Practitioners and researchers engaged in teaching geography, climate and biodiversity
