Are you interested in developing your Science Diplomacy skills? Play the role of a diplomat, policy advisor and other stakeholders of the Arctic trade!

Come join us in this Arctic simulation along with the International Institute for Applied System Analysis (IIASA), the Institute for Science, Society and Policy (ISSP) and the National Research Council (NRC).

Through an immersive virtual platform developed by our collaborators at the Centre for Systems Solutions (CRS) you will be able to develop your skills and knowledge in a real-world policy discussion while facing global challenges and the policy development process along with multiple stakeholders and countries.

The event will consist of a 4h-policy simulation based on an Arctic case study. Followed by a keynote presentation by Dr. Monica Gattinger, Director, ISSP and Chair, Positive Energy, uOttawa. We will then end the evening with a virtual networking session.

The event and keynote speech will be delivered in English.
