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
Intergenerational contact zones (ICZs) are spatial focal points for intergenerational encounters. ICZs provide both, a conceptual tool for studying complex, multi-generational community settings and a design tool for creating innovative, responsive intergenerational meeting spaces. This session will provide various examples of how this conceptual framework can be used to broaden the range of intergenerational activity possibilities in diverse community settings, including parks and playgrounds, retirement communities, schools, multi-service community centers, even bus stops.
