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
Evidence into Action - how to deliver nature-based solutions at scale in the UK
Invitation to our special, free event: Evidence into Action – how to deliver nature-based solutions at scale in the UK
Tuesday 18 June, 6.30-8.30pm, St Cross College, Oxford
Drinks reception with nibbles, followed by a panel discussion.
There is increasing recognition that we need nature to play a central role in addressing climate change, from supporting food and water security in the UK to improving physical and mental health of our people.
There is also an estimated funding gap of between £40-90 billion for nature’s recovery. To begin to address this, the UK Government recently published a landmark green finance strategy and nature markets framework.
As one of the largest landowners in the UK, The Wildlife Trusts are harnessing the power of nature to deliver positive change for people across the UK and overcoming barriers to the scaling up of finance for nature-based solutions.
This panel discussion, jointly hosted by The Wildlife Trusts and Berkshire, Buckinghamshire & Oxfordshire Wildlife Trust, will look at the challenges and opportunities for practical action in the UK for scaling up the delivery of nature-based solutions.
Speakers will include Kathryn Brown OBE, Director of Climate Change and Evidence at RSWT. The discussion is being hosted to coincide with the Nature-Based Solutions conference taking place in Oxford.
