Open Meeting

Room: 1.343 (Teorifagbygget Hus 1)

 

Session Abstract: 

The ASSW workshop will gather representatives of natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, local and Indigenous communities. We set up the following objectives to frame our discussions and further activities:

  • To explore creative possibilities of art, science, local and Indigenous knowledge to understand interdependencies and interrelations within Arctic social-ecological systems.
  • To examine drivers of infrastructure change in the Arctic social-ecological systems as a case-study for possible future collaboration.
  • To discuss collaborative scientific and artistic practices based on analysis of case-studies at the fringe of these cultural approaches.
  • To define the most effective ways to represent co-created understandings of Arctic sustainability for the wider audience.
