Energy, climate, society and environment
Understanding what happens in the Arctic is key to understanding global climate change. UiT will develop cutting-edge knowledge on:
- Causes and effects of changes in climate and environment
- Conventional and renewable energy production
- Social adaptation to changes in climate and environment
- Indigenous peoples' competence, the challenges indigenous peoples face due to climate change, and how traditional knowledge can contribute
