Dear colleagues,
You can now apply to be a part of Arctic Summer College 2017 at
http://bit.ly/ASCapply2017(link is external)
The deadline for your application is *June 8, 2017*.
Since 2012, the Arctic Summer College <http://arcticsummercollege.org>
provides an interdisciplinary learning environment to increase knowledge
and understanding of the people and the environment of the Arctic. To
achieve this, the College focuses on climate change adaptation, natural
resource management, biodiversity protection, environmental governance,
energy policy, security, and human health. The College is primarily a
virtual campus for learning about the environment in the Arctic and
exchanging ideas on how collaborative efforts can protect the Arctic
from negative impacts of human activities in the High North.
The Arctic Summer College invites practitioners and graduate students
from around the world to participate in an expert-led, interactive
webinar series in which you will engage with Arctic experts in a variety
of fields in real time. During the course, you will build relationships
with other participants, develop connections with Arctic professionals,
and enter into a larger network of Arctic Summer College Alumni upon
completion of the program.
You will benefit from lectures and submit a final paper to earn our
Arctic Summer College Student Certification. The final paper can be on a
topic of your choice within relevant fields such as sustainable
development, environmental protection, and/or international cooperation
in the Arctic. Exceptional participants will have the opportunity to
publish their work in the peer-reviewed Arctic Summer College yearbook
(see also our previous book on Arctic
Governance:http://ecologic.eu/10044(link is externa) and the World
Policy Institute's Arctic in Context Blog. Additionally, distinguished
participants will receive a travel grant to present their research at
the 2017 Arctic Circle Assembly in Reykjavik, Iceland.
9 online lectures will be hosted by Ecologic Institute on Wednesdays
from 18:00-20:00 CEST / 12:00-14:00 EDT from July 5 to August 30, 2017.
The participation fee for the Arctic Summer College is 300 USD or 300 EUR.
