- Om arrangementet
The Arctic has taken a central position on the international political agenda. A growing number of countries are showing an interest in economic and geopolitical matters in the far north, while climate change is being increasingly felt within the Arctic area.
Co-operation is now limited between Russia and the other nations bordering the Arctic in the Nordic Region and North America, while major powers such as China and India are showing a growing interest in the area.
As an attractive, strategic and vulnerable region, the Arctic is particularly dependent on good co-operation across national borders.
We bring together stakeholders from different parts of the Arctic co-operation and ask:
- What is the strategic importance of the Arctic region in Nordic and transatlantic co-operation?
- How can we work together to ensure the peaceful and sustainable management of the Arctic?
- Which roles do science, local interests, and indigenous populations play?
Debate and mingle
The debate lasts for 45-minutes. It is followed by an open mingle & networking session with food and refreshments.
