Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
The new release of the Global Multidimensional Poverty Index takes place this Friday 17th October on the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty.
The new 2025 global MPI report Overlapping Hardships: Poverty and Climate Hazards is produced in partnership with the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative (OPHI) and the United Nations Development Programme Human Development Report Office (UNDP HDRO). This report overlays data on climate hazards and multidimensional poverty for the first time to assess how exposed poor people are to climate challenges.
The speakers will reflect on the findings of the report and what this means for human-centred climate action in the lead up to COP30 in Belém, Brazil.
