Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
In October 2023, four graduates from the University of Oxford School of Geography and Environment travelled to West Bengal and Sikkim in India for six weeks with the aim of sharing stories of communities’ resilience and adaptation to increasing water challenges.
“We were driven to understand how communities are adapting to shifting hydrological conditions, what innovative methods are employed to mitigate water-related risks, and whether West Bengal’s water managers can serve as global exemplars. Our partnerships with local organizations made this project successful. We are thankful for the support by the Oxford University Exploration Club and Expeditions Council, and other funders.”
The event will be followed by a networking break with drinks and snacks.
