OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Feminist Agroecology and Criollo Hens: Women’s Everyday Resistance in Colombia
Jaskiran Kaur Chohan is a Senior Lecturer in Political Ecology at School of Geographical Science, University of Bristol. She completed her PhD in Development Studies at UCL, examining tensions between industrial farming and agroecology in Colombia’s Zonas de Reserva Campesina. Her research at Bristol has focused on livestock transitions and conservation conflicts in the Colombian Páramo, alongside work on peasant and popular feminist approaches to sustainability and peacebuilding in the Magdalena Medio. She now leads a British Academy funded project on inclusive evidence for co-produced policies on drought and desertification in North-East Brazil. This project brings together institutional science, public policy, and traditional water saving and farming knowledge using decolonial and participatory methods. Her areas of interest span feminist agroecology, decolonising food systems, and agrarian change.
