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
Our Himalayan Forum will explore what climate resilience means and looks like on the ground in Nepal and the greater Himalayan region, focusing on the ways in which young Himalayans actively shape climate innovation in the region. Leading activists with a wealth of grassroots development experience will start by setting the context in Nepal, in particular alternatives to large-scale out-migration. Youth who have decided to remain and build abundant and climate resilient livelihoods in their home villages will share their experiences. The Forum will then provide avenues to discuss the challenges of multi-criteria evaluation faced by researchers and funding bodies who design development projects aimed to tackle climate resilience holistically across all sectors. The discussion aims to unite youth, activism and academia in action on climate change in the Himalaya.
