The proposal states:
“The committees also believes that an expanded research infrastructure cooperation can help to stimulate intersectoral / scientific research network and graduate education, where USA, Canada, Russia and the EU should be involved. Such an initiative could be very effective if it is based on existing Nordic and international infrastructure for cooperation such as NordForsk, University of the Arctic, IASC and IASSA.”

UArctic enthusiastically welcomes the Nordic Council recognition of UArctic's important role and our cooperation with IASC, IASSA and NordForsk.
