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
Update: Tina Fawcett will be joined by co-speaker Yael Parag Cohen (www.creds.ac.uk/people/yael-parag) with a slight adjustment to the focus of the talk to: ‘Changing roles for individuals and organisations in the net zero transition. Policy and Governance perspectives.
Responding to the climate emergency is a UK priority, however, the role for individuals is unclear – must they be active citizens co-creating the transition, consumers responding to economic signals, both of these, or neither? This talk shows how individuals are currently conceptualised in energy policy and how this differs between policy instruments. It considers future policy, future people, the pluses and minuses of different visions of individual participation.
