Oxford Environmental Innovation Forum 2008

Friday 21 November 2008

The aim of this event is to strengthen links between the international graduate student body of the School of Geography and the Environment and Oxford-based organisations at the cutting edge of environmental policy and practice. The afternoon will profile the innovative work going on in Oxford and will provide an opportunity for students and presenters to meet and discuss current policy initiatives, ideas for dissertation research and perhaps also in association with Oxford-based groups.
