It examines issues such as climate change impacts, natural resource management, indigenous cultures, international relations, and sustainable development. By integrating insights from sciences, humanities, and social sciences, Arctic Studies aims to understand the region’s complexities and address challenges posed by environmental shifts and geopolitical interests, fostering informed policies and responsible stewardship of this vital and evolving frontier.
