The workshop is organized with support of the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC) and is the first step to prepare for the in-person meeting at the ASSW 2022 that will be held in Tromsø, Norway on 26 - 31 March 2022.

Through this intercultural and interdisciplinary collaboration, we want to draw attention to local and Indigenous knowledge and arts as important components of transdisciplinary scientific research. Through such collaboration and hands-on experience exchange, we want to enhance our understanding of sustainability in the Arctic and transformations that are taking place in diverse areas of life of the Arctic residents.

This workshop is planned in the form of a virtual talking circle combined with a visioning session where the speakers will share their visions of existing and possible collaboration at the intersection of arts, science, local and Indigenous knowledge systems.
