An important goal of NPAC is to attract and involv
e the next generation of policy, science, and practice leaders: explicitly,
to solicit the contributions of knowledgeable early to mid-career individu
als who will become leaders in addressing the Arctic science and policy iss
ues emerging in global affairs.
In support of this goal,
funds are available to support the participation of a small number of compe
titive Early-Career Arctic researchers, policy makers and practitioners as
NPAC 2021 Fellows.
Those chosen this year will be the fourth c
ohort of NPAC Fellows. They will join a group of world class international
researchers and policy makers in addressing contemporary issues affecting t
he Arctic. For further information please see the NPAC Fellow’s webpage.
