Arctic Frontiers Science 2020 takes place 26-30 January 2020 in Tromsø, Norway.

Arctic Frontiers Science 2020 will address the following themes:

  • Arctic Food Security
  • Knowledge-based development in the Arctic
  • Disruptive technologies
  • Local or Global Arctic? Multi-scaled considerations of connections and remoteness in climate-impacted communities

On behalf of the Arctic Frontiers Science Committees, we have great pleasure in inviting you to submit one or more abstracts to any of the four themes.

The abstract submission system will be available shortly. All abstracts are reviewed by scientific experts for rating of abstract quality and presentation content.

Deadline for conference abstract submission has been extended to Tuesday 8 October 2019.

In addition, presenters and attendees of Arctic Frontiers 2020 conference are encouraged to contribute to the Springer book volume “BUILDING COMMON INTERESTS IN THE ARCTIC OCEAN WITH GLOBAL INCLUSION” edited by Paul Arthur Berkman, Oran R. Young, Alexander Vylegzhanin, Ole Øvretveit and David A. Balton. The book volume is developed as a part of the collaboration between the Arctic Frontiers and the Science Diplomacy Center, Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University. Further details can be found below. We expect that book contributors will give an oral presentation at Arctic Frontiers 2020.
