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
Online talk by Prof Tim Schwanen as part of Meeting Minds Global. The climate emergency is the most fundamental crisis the transport sector is facing worldwide. It is now widely recognised that the ways in which people and goods are moved around needs to change fundamentally, and cities across the planet are leading the way with extensive experimentation with different technologies, institutional arrangements and behaviours for mobility. It is, however, important that transformations to low-carbon and climate-robust mobilities are also socially and spatially just. This talk will introduce the notion of just transformations in urban mobility and discuss what this means for the introduction and upscaling of electric, automated and shared vehicles; the implementation of mobility-as-a-service concepts; and the expansion of transit-oriented development.
