ASSW 2025 organizers are now accepting session proposals for the ICARP IV Summit. Within the overall theme of “Arctic Research Planning for the Next Decade”, sessions are invited to address the following areas:
- Research topics that align with one or more of the seven existing ICARP IV Research Priority Team Areas.
- Research topics that are critical for Arctic research planning to consider, but are broader than or not included within any of the seven existing ICARP IV Research Priority Team Areas. For example, topics here may include emerging Arctic threats, new areas in social science, Arctic economies, etc.
- Matters that are important to Arctic research planning and implementation. For example, topics here may include science policy, research evaluation, research ethics, scenario planning, international funding and coordination mechanisms, etc.
