📸 An inspiring week in Brussels:

Monday brought together an international group of students working with future investment scenarios for the European Arctic.

On Tuesday, those ideas moved onto the Arctic Futures Symposium stage, where we took part in the program as experts discussed the scenarios and their possible implications for Arctic policy and development.

The workshop was organised by Nord universitet, International Polar Foundation, Brussels School of Governance and the North Norway European Office.

We also had a good meeting with the North Norway European Office while in Brussels.

Thanks to everyone who contributed, collaborated and took the time to connect!
