OxTalks is Changing
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
Opportunities and challenges in using research to influence policy on childhood poverty in low- and middle-income countries
An inter-disciplinary, mixed-methods, longitudinal study across four low- and middle-income countries, Young Lives was designed with the objective of reducing childhood poverty. This has meant developing an explicit theory of change and ensuring that the research dissemination strategy and governance and partnership structures are geared towards maximising impact. But the theoretical, conceptual, and practical challenges are many, as this talk highlights.
