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
OUEC has supported over 250 expeditions across the globe, for almost 100 years since 1927. To commemorate this remarkable milestone, we have launched a series of Arctic expeditions and centennial events over a three-year period, leading up to 2027.
Three expedition teams from Oxford are preparing to conduct fieldwork in Svalbard, Iceland and Greenland in 2026. These expeditions address novel research areas across diverse fields, including glaciology, biology and anthropology, while equipping the next generation of explorers with valuable skills and experience.
