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
This event is Seminar 4 in DSPI’s Hilary Term Seminar Series.
Making the transition to adulthood is a key developmental task for young people. In this paper I will address key challenges and opportunities facing young people coming of age in different historical periods, i.e., before and after the turn of the Millennium, following the 2008 recession and the 2020 global Covid-19 pandemic. The focus lies on experiences of social inequality across multiple domains such as education, employment and housing and associated levels of health and wellbeing. Adopting a life course perspective I will discuss the interlinkages of multiple inequalities, the interactions between social and individual-level resources and what can be done to support young people in times of social change.
Booking is required for people outside of the Department of Social Policy and Intervention (DSPI).
