To maintain momentum and enrich the research and knowledge-building process, the project incorporates several supporting activities, including:
Peer-Reviewed Book
The book project “What it means to be resilient: Lessons from the Arctic” aims at exploring stories and case studies of resilience in the Arctic context. Spearheaded by a team of Arctic researchers, this project seeks to delve into the unique ways Arctic communities, industries, projects, cities, supply chains, and organizations evolve, adapt, and thrive in the face of extreme conditions and dramatic climatic, environmental, economic, political, social, and technological changes. Particular attention will be placed on including Indigenous researchers and knowledge holders in the project.
Virtual Storyboard
The Arctic Resilience Storyboard will showcase detailed narratives and significant insights from various cases using a variety of media tools (interviews, photos, short stories, audio recordings, etc.). This platform not only increases visibility for the research, but also engages a broader audience, enhancing the educational impact of the project. On the platform we will present variety of Arctic resilience cases not limited by the book project.
Workshops, Podcasts, and Webinars
The project team will host a series of workshops for participants of the book project to strengthen collective effort, mutual learning and communication between authors and chapters. Further, we are planning a series of podcasts featuring discussions with key researchers from all over the Arctic. These podcasts aim to delve deeper into the challenges and strategies of Arctic communities, providing a more personal touch to the scientific discourse.
Furthermore, a series of workshops and webinars will be held throughout the project's duration. These events are designed to facilitate collaboration among contributors, enhance the quality of the research, and provide continuous engagement with the research community and the public. By integrating these activities with the main research efforts, the project ensures a rich, interactive, and productive development process that not only supports the publication of the book, but also promotes a sustained interest in Arctic resilience.
