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
I am going to presenting the results from a comprehensive literature review looking at care pathways in under-5 deaths in Sub-Saharan Africa. The majority of child deaths on the African continent happen at home, outside of formal healthcare services. However, increasingly studies have shown that a majority of children were taken to a healthcare provider for care during their final illness. This literature review summarises the findings from studies across sub-Saharan Africa to describe the care pathway for under-5 deaths using the “Pathways to Survival” framework. By understanding where in the pathway children drop out of the formal healthcare system we are better able to direct future interventions to reduce under-5 mortality.
