On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
We are living through a nature crisis.
As a result a wide range of conservation interventions are being implemented with the intention of slowing the loss of biodiversity. But is conservation effective? How do we know?
Drawing on studies from the local to the global scale, this talk will explore the impacts of a range of approaches to conservation (including protected areas, biodiversity offsets and conservation agreements) on a range of outcomes (species populations, forest cover and human wellbeing). Professor Julia Jones, Professor of Conservation Science, will discuss the methods currently used to evaluate the impact of conservation interventions and how these need to change to ensure conservation can be as effective, and crucially cost effective, as possible.
