Building a Sustainable Arctic Together
- 11/12/2024

- Busan International Exhibition & Convention Center
The future of the Arctic is a shared concern, and addressing its challenges requires a new level of cross-border collaboration and innovative thinking.
This event will further the ongoing collaboration between the Korean Maritime Institute and Arctic Frontiers. We’ll gather experts from both countries to examine the situation as it is and explore sustainable pathways forward.
Central to this event is the belief that the solutions for tomorrow must be built today, with contributions from diverse stakeholders, including scientists, policymakers, local communities, and industry leaders. We aim to strengthen the bonds between Arctic research and the global community by fostering a dialogue that cuts across disciplines and sectors, all with a shared commitment to sustainable development.
