OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Parental Background Matters But Not Whether They Are Migrants: Education and Labour Market Outcomes Among the Danish-Born
On average, first-generation locals experience lower earnings, lower rates of employment and lower levels of education when compared to children of locals. However, when we compare children with similar parental characteristics, e.g. with similar parental earnings during childhood, first-generation locals generally perform as well or better than children of locals. In other words, we find that there is little distinctive about being a child of immigrants in the labour market, other than differences in average levels of parental characteristics.
