Dear colleagues,

I am pleased to invite you to a workshop on May 12th, 1200-1700, at Newcastle University, entitled 'Future of the Arctic'. 

Most importantly: the workshop is free to attend, and we are providing lunch.

This workshop will feature exciting speakers from a range of backgrounds covering the future research priorities for the Arctic across the cryospheric, climatic and oceanic realms, science for policy, the changing geopolitical environment of the Arctic, and progress and best practice in the decolonisation of Arctic science, history and exploration.

We will offer opportunities for networking, interdisciplinary collaboration, and expert insights into future research priorities across the Arctic.

More details are in the attached document. 

If you would like to attend, please sign up on the registration form by 23^rd March.
