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
Climate change, poverty and health are inextricably linked. Safeguarding rural livelihoods from the destabilizing impacts of extreme weather events can promote the health and wellbeing of farmers, their families and communities, thereby ensuring a more resilient agricultural sector. This panel will consider whole-systems approaches to improve farmer health and wellbeing, from climate-sensitive health risks, their exposure pathways, and vulnerability factors, to the importance of enhancing the adaptive capacity and resilience of health and agricultural systems. We will explore these areas while considering the context-specific needs and priorities of rural communities, putting farmers’ health and wellbeing at the heart of this dialogue.
