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.

In our current social landscape, climate change is perhaps the most pressing issue affecting societies on a global scale. This urgency is deeply felt in literature and the arts and is shaping research in philosophy and history. As Elizabeth M DeLoughrey explains, our “increasing awareness of climate change is catalyzing new imaginaries”. History offers numerous examples of major climate events, which not only help us to understand what is exceptional about the current situation but also to find models of resilience. Habitat loss and the catastrophic decline of the world’s wildlife are brought into sharp relief by studying the rich biodiversity of previous centuries.
