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 Paris Agreement obligations expire in 2024. How do we ensure that global climate action will continue and be enhanced beyond the Paris legal infrastructure? Climate change is a problem that will remain with us for many more decades. We should start negotiations on how we should proceed after the Paris Agreement has come to an end. We should set this process in motion earlier on.
Will COP26 inspire new and legally binding obligations to reduce emissions and on loss and damage resulting from climate change?
What will the consequences be if COP26 does not deliver legally binding commitments?
Would that result in future COPs with similar lengthy negotiations, or would it give rise to a new format?
How would that format best be structured given that we are facing a global climate emergency and we are at T-9 years for halving emissions?
