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
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.
