Concurrent with the Summer School, the final conference of the ICE LAW Project will be held. For the past three years, the Project, and its various working groups, have been holding small workshops and community meetings to investigate the potential for a legal framework that acknowledges the complex geophysical environment in the world’s frozen regions and to explore the impact that an ice-sensitive legal system would have on topics ranging from the everyday activities of Arctic residents to the territorial foundations of the modern state. Although part of the conference will include reflections from subproject leaders. Input (including paper presentations) is welcome from individuals who have not been involved to date with the project. A poster session from Summer School participants will be integrated into the conference.
