Welcome to "Arctic - Changing Realities"
The changing realities of the Arctic are creating an imperative for deeper understanding of the current situation as well as to the responses and actions needed for the region to cope with these changes.

The Nordic Council of Ministers wishes to contribute to a constructive and creative dialogue between different stakeholders of the Arctic, so that an adaption to the changing realities in the Arctic can come about.
The conference is a memento to move beyond some of the articulated questions, needs and challenges presented at the conference "Common Concern for the Arctic" held in Ilulissat, Greenland, in September, 2008. It is also an attempt to identify how and in which areas the Nordic Council of Ministers could create added value to a sustainable development in the Arctic.
The conference will present focussed discussions revolving around three main themes: 1) Local and global governance in the Arctic, 2) Resources in the Arctic and 3) Living in the Arctic.
Arctic - Changing Realities takes place in Copenhagen, 26 May 2010.
