Gateway to the Arctic VIII

Early stage researchers from different disciplines in the Humanities and Sciences who are interested in the circumpolar regions participate in these annual workshops offering intensive exchange thanks to presentations, panel discussions and group work, allowing participants to build up their own networks in Arctic studies
