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
Legal action for the climate: the role of schools, teachers and students
An Oxford Education Deanery webinar.
Register at: bit.ly/OxClimateWebinar
This event is free to join.
As recent events have demonstrated, many children and young people have taken it upon themselves to be at the forefront of efforts to address the climate disaster through legal action. In this webinar,convened by the University of Oxford’s climate jurisprudence and climate education researchers,you will learn what climate litigation is and how it works. The conversation will focus on youth-led legal action for the climate, underscoring the importance of civic engagement and how this can empower young people’s voices. The webinar will be a timely and important exploration of the rights and responsibilities of us all, and a useful contribution to Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education (PSHE), Civics, and related curricula in schools.
