T4-4. Communities and change
Proposed focus:
This session will explore the relationship between adaptation, response, resilience and relocation of transient and permanent polar residents and global environmental and societal change. Furthermore, the session aims at examining determinants, patterns, and consequences of northern migration will be examined under consideration of the interactions between governments and communities. Questions of socio-cultural and environmental sustainability of polar regions and their residents under consideration of social and environmental indicators will also be discussed.
Session in theme: Theme 4. Human dimensions of change: Health, society and resources
