Tiivistelmä
Arctic issues are rising around us on every field at the point of view of environment, sustainability, climate change, indigenous peoples’ rights, design and society, snow and ice building knowledge, challenges and possibilities in Arctic areas. The Arctic is written in Finland’s future strategies, and in 2017 Finland assumes the chairmanship of Arctic Council.
In the northernmost university of European Union, University of Lapland, the northern issues have always been written in the DNA of university’s actions, visions, strategy and curricula. At the moment, “northern” and “Arctic” are written in the university’s strategy. According to these themes, several projects and research topics are oriented to the Arctic problems. In this context, the ArcticPro network and ArcticPro Lapland project are up to date but at the same time very normal and natural approaches in the Northern areas.
