OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Communicating the climate crisis to children
How do we talk to children about climate change? What can kids and adults learn from each other about how to approach such a controversial and scary subject? Should we protect young people from knowledge of the very real dangers of the climate crisis, or should we trust them with the full truth? These were the questions our panellists, Janice Lao and Dr Steve Smith dealt with as they each worked on their recent books for children about the climate crisis. Join us for a discussion of these questions, and bring your own for Janice and Steve.
SoGE alumna Janice Lao and Oxford Net Zero Director Dr Steve Smith in conversation about their recent climate change books for kids. Online talk in the main programme of Meeting Minds Global 2021.
