International Arctic Research Commission

The International Arctic Research Commission (IARC) is a collaborative organization established in 1991 dedicated to coordinating scientific research in the Arctic region. Its goal is to promote international cooperation among Arctic nations and scientists to better understand the area's environment, climate change impacts, and ecosystems. By sharing data and resources, IARC helps advance knowledge about Arctic processes, which is vital for informing policy decisions, environmental management, and addressing global climate issues. The commission emphasizes scientific excellence and international partnership to ensure comprehensive research that benefits both the Arctic and the broader global community.
