OxTalks is Changing
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
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.
