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
Provost Paul Johnson will be joined by Sir Dieter Helm who, as well as being Professor of Economic Policy at Oxford, is the UK’s foremost authority on the economics of energy, climate change, sustainability and natural capital.
Sir Dieter is author of bestselling books on these topics, and has fascinating insights, often at variance with the received wisdom. From 2012 to 2020, he was Independent Chair of the Natural Capital Committee, providing advice to the government on the sustainable use of natural capital. In his latest book, Legacy: How to Build the Sustainable Economy, he addresses the question: what would the sustainable economy look like and what would it take to live within our environmental means?
The conversation will cover climate change policy, energy transition, and the natural environment.
