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

But can academia, a community concerned with the pursuit of research, education, and scholarship meaningfully contribute to the protection of biodiversity? Conservation science—spanning both natural and social sciences—is argued by its advocates to play a central role in delivering applied solutions to slow and prevent biodiversity loss.
