Canada’s North is experiencing unprecedented change in its sea and terre strial ice, permafrost and ecosystems under the triple pressures of climate change, industrialization and modernization. The impacts of these pressure s can be seen on food and energy security, shipping, sovereignty, northern community health and well-being, and sustainable development and resource e xploitation. All these issues have brought the North to the forefront of na tional and international agendas.

Building on the success of its prev ious Annual Scientific Meetings and International Arctic Change Conferences , the ArcticNet Network of Centres of Excellence announces the 14th ArcticN et Annual Scientific Meeting, which will be held at the Shaw Centre in Ottawa, Canada from December 10 -14, 2018.

Arctic resear chers, Inuit, First Nations, Métis and Northern Community representatives, government and non-government organizations, students, and industry stakeho lders are encouraged to attend.
