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.
What is the role of academia in addressing the biodiversity crisis?
The biodiversity crisis, driven by human activity, is one of the most pressing challenges of our time. Addressing this crisis requires urgent, effective solutions informed by diverse perspectives. 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.
