A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Older adults and individuals with chronic illnesses or disabilities, as well as caregivers, often face increased exposure to climate-related hazards such as extreme heat, natural disasters, and displacement. It is essential to ensure that Long-Term Care systems are prepared to respond to climate-related events and other potential future crises. Dr Adelina Comas-Herrera, Director of the Global Observatory of Long-Term Care at the London School of Economics, will explore how LTC systems can prepare for climate-related emergencies and crises, considering lessons from the difficulties that countries, including the United Kingdom, faced when trying to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This hybrid event is run by Green Templeton’s long-running Care Initiative, led by Professor Mary Daly.
After the talk there will be a short drinks reception in the Stables Bar.
