Reykjavík will be hosting the next Arctic Circle Assembly.
It is the largest annual international gathering on the Arctic, attended by more than 2000 participants from over 60 countries.
The AUI has succeeded in proposing the “Preserving the Arctic: Challenges Ahead” session, which will focus on strengthening the local communities that are facing increased migration and urbanisation as the Arctic becomes more habitable.
The rapidly changing Arctic has a global impact as many atmospheric events originate there, influencing weather patterns that contribute to extremes and accelerating migration.
Registration is open for the 2024 Assembly until 14 October 2024.
