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
Join us for a conversation with Lord McConnell, co-chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for the UN Global Goals for Sustainable Development, House of Lords, including q&a on priority areas for the implementation of the SDGs.
Lord (Jack) McConnell was First Minister of Scotland, 2001–07. He has been a Member of the House of Lords since 2010. He is a leading campagner on tackling global poverty and working for peace.
He is the chair of Reform Scotland, Scotland’s leading think tank, which works to promote increased prosperity, a positive climate for entrepreneurs and innovators, reform and modernisation of public services, a widening of opportunity for all, compassion for those who slip through the cracks, and greater courage and appetite for risk among policy-makers.
