The China-Nordic Arctic Cooperation Symposium is the annual meeting of the China-Nordic Arctic Research Center (CNARC), a network of eleven Member Institutes, five Chinese and six Nordic, which all have capacities to influence and coordinate Arctic research. CNARC’s purpose is to provide a platform for academic cooperation to increase awareness, understanding and knowledge of the Arctic and its global impacts, as well as to promote cooperation for sustainable development of the Nordic Arctic and coherent development of China in a global context.

This year the event will be hosted by the Arctic Centre, University of Lapland that kindly invites members of scientific, policy and business communities to attend the Symposium on 6-9 June 2016. The Symposium will consist of two parts: the academic conference and the business roundtable (upon invitations) - to enable exchanges between interested parties on relevant Arctic issues.

The registration to the Symposium is now open here.
