Nyt internationalt undervisningsinitiativ skal fange unge grønlænderes interesse for miljø, sundhed og klimaforandringer.

Klimaændringer og nye økonomiske muligheder stiller store krav til rådgivning og forvaltning i det arktiske område. Nu går Grønlands Universitet, Færøernes Universitet og samtlige danske universiteter sammen om at ruste nye kandidater til opgaverne ved at uddanne arktiske specialister på tværs af mange fagområder.

The stage is set for a significant strengthening of Danish efforts in Arctic research and education following the two-day conference held at Hindsgavl Manor in Middelfart, which was attended by eighty researchers and representatives from authorities in Denmark, Greenland and the Faroe Islands. The aim was to kickstart the Arctic Initiative, which is the most comprehensive venture in Denmark to date regarding the management of the major challenges in the Arctic region.
