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
“An image is worth a thousand words,” the saying goes. While powerful images can captivate and inspire action, we still have much to learn about using imagery effectively for wildlife conservation. In this talk, I will review our current understanding of how images are used to promote wildlife conservation, present recent research on which images have the most impact, and discuss the emerging challenges posed by generative AI and image manipulation.
