OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Genderwashing Meets Girl Power: The transnational politics of corporate-NGO partnerships for girls’ education
This event is part of the Childhood and Youth Studies Network (CYS) events.
The first two decades of the twenty-first century saw the rise of girl power discourses in international development, which argue that when girls in the Global South are given an investment to stay in school, they will go on to lift entire communities out of poverty. NGOs, governments, and international institutions began to champion girls as the ‘untapped resource’ the world had been waiting for.
