Researcher in Greenland? Let’s connect on February 25th, 2025!

 

At Arctic Hub, we would love to get a better understanding and overview of the research activities in Greenland. We invite you to share your plans for your research in Greenland in 2025 and learn about other ongoing projects in the area you’re planning to visit.

 

Target Group: Researchers with research activities in Greenland in 2025; all research areas welcome. Greenlandic research stakeholders are welcome to join as well.

 

Date: Wednesday, February 25th, 2025 – 10:00-13.00 am (UTC-2/West Greenlandic Time).

 

Participation: The online meeting will be held on Zoom by invitation: The workshop language is English. To improve the experience for both you and your fellow attendees, we encourage you to participate actively and with video. 🙂

 

Aim: 
1) Establish an overview of research activities in Greenland across research disciplines
2) Share overview with a broad range of stakeholders, e.g. citizens, public administration, business organizations
3) Enhance the quality of research through coordination, collaboration, and knowledge exchange
