As part of the Model NATO and Security in the North (5 ECTS) course, Professor Gunhild Hoogensen Gjørv will be delivering a special lecture on the role of NATO in preserving and enhancing Arctic/Nordic security amid the rise of hybrid threat activities in the region and beyond. She will additionally delve into the role of total defence approaches in mitigating such threats in pursuit of security enhancement.
Professor Gjørv's lecture will be open to all staff members, students, and guests at UiT.
The Model NATO and Security in the North course is taking place from September 2 to September 6, 2024 under the auspices of the Centre for Peace Studies and The Grey Zone research group. It entails three days of thematic lectures and panel discussions followed by two days of an extensive crisis simulation. The course offers a deep dive into the aims, functions, and limitations of NATO, as well as robust training in dialogue and negotiations. Students from not only UiT but also Umeå University (Sweden) and the University of Lapland (Finland) are participating in the course.
