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
There has been limited investment from climate funds in the sanitation sector, largely due to political debate on the role of official development assistance in tackling climate change. This online seminar will focus on the connections between climate change and sanitation. The presenters will discuss the importance of sanitation management to build resilience and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The critical role of sanitation in building community resilience and the vulnerability of sanitation systems to climate events will be highlighted. Evidence will be put forward to support calls for professionalization in the management of sanitation systems, greater government engagement with sanitation service provision, and more investment and planning for waste treatment facilities. The potential role of climate finance will be discussed.
