Networking from pole to pole: facilitating access for research and infrastructure

The side event will start the Joint Action on Polar Research. We shall initiate a dialogue between the Belem partners on how to develop a network that facilitates access for the All-Atlantic partners to national research facilities and infrastructure at the poles (also referred to as “cross-border” access). The workshop shall identify challenges, best practices, and next steps for implementing cross border access to polar research facilities and infrastructure.

Bring together all relevant All-Atlantic partners working in the Polar Regions to identify concrete steps towards a network that facilitates cross border access for all partners to national research facilities and infrastructure at the poles. Sharing polar infrastructure resources will minimise the environmental impacts of polar research activities and built new All-Atlantic partnerships.
