Conferences

8–9 June 2017, School of Geography and the Environment, University of Oxford
4th Oxford Interdisciplinary Desert Conference

Deserts and drylands encompass 40% of the globe and shelter two billion people. Arid regions are home to the major religions, valued natural resources, scarcity, wealth and poverty, and face issues that dominate our time. Geopolitics, climate change, development, land degradation, population growth and conflict are issues that have relevance beyond any singular department or perspective. The 4th Oxford Interdisciplinary Desert Conference, from 8-9 June 2017, will provide a forum for researchers and those interested in desert and dryland environments and societies to present, discuss and debate dryland themes and research.
