OxTalks is Changing
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
Rewilding
Lecture abstract TBC
Biography:
Charlie is the inspiration behind Knepp Wildland, a 3,500 acre estate in West Sussex and the largest rewilding project in lowland Britain. Switching to ‘process-led’ conservation, using free-roaming herds of grazing animals, Knepp is now a hotspot for numerous endangered species like turtle-doves, nightingales and purple emperor butterflies and has become a leading light in the conservation movement.
This lecture is both in person and online. A drinks reception will be held afterwards and everyone is welcome.
