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
In this lecture Fiona Williams will explain how care as practice, as policy, as ethic, and as transnational dynamic lends itself to a critical intersectional perspective. She will look at care as an area of crisis at different scales – local, national, transnational and global – which is marked by two key dynamics: the longstanding devaluation of care as practice, work and ethic, and (following Rai) the depletion of support, resources and time to enable people’s capacity to care and be cared for. However, these dynamics are also caught up in two other global crises: of climate change and of racial (in)justice. Drawing on intersectionality as praxis, she will argue that understanding these intersections is an important basis for creating the necessary conceptual and political alliances for progressive transformation.
Booking is required for people outside of the Department of Social Policy and Intervention (DSPI).
