ИСТИНА

The interdisciplinary R&D five-block panel focusing on the importance of engineering research in the Arctic and its implementation in a changing climate in order to enable higher quality of life as well as sustainable and low impact development in the Arctic. The session will provide an outlook on the infrastructure development in the Arctic, particularly, when climate and sea ice prediction models, sustainable development practices, and indigenous community needs are taken into account. Moreover, commercial and navigational feasibility of the Northern Sea Route as well as the assessment of environmental risks and its minimization pertaining to the Arctic development will be discussed. We cordially invite engineers, researchers, policy makers, business developers, and indigenous peoples' representatives.
