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.
Prof Kumar will be discussing his work with the RECLAIM Network Plus,* the GREENIN Network Plus** and GP4Streets***, as well as his wider Global Centre for Clean Air Research work.
*RECLAIM Network Plus is a ‘one-stop-shop’ for towns and cities to find the information and support you need to install green and blue infrastructure in your communities and to put you in touch with others with similar interests and experiences.
**People have been using plants such as ferns and succulents to brighten up their homes for millennia, but how much of an impact do they have on our environment and wellbeing? A new project led by the University of Surrey’s Global Centre for Clean Air Research (GCARE) will explore the role of plants and green infrastructure in improving indoor environmental quality (IEQ) and promoting health in the face of climate change.
***At GP4Streets, we recognise that streets are the heart of our neighbourhoods, yet they are often the most deprived areas in terms of green-blue-grey infrastructure (GBGI). Our vision is to transform these urban spaces into resilient, sustainable environments through innovative, do-it-yourself (DIY) GBGI solutions.
