OxTalks is Changing
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
Family changes and incipient political responses in a context of high inequalities: Latin America before and since COVID
Please note registration closes on 8 Feb, 2021
Latin America has the world’s highest out-of-wedlock births, high rates of lone motherhood, and high rates of child poverty. What -if anything-have governments done over the past two decades to promote gender-equal family policies and reduce child poverty? This presentation outlines social changes in families in the context of high socio-economic inequalities, highlighting the (understudied) role of fathers. It will then focus on a conceptual and empirical overview of policy responses, and discuss both potential causes as well as implications for the current COVID crisis and its aftermath
