The Arctic Indigenous Peoples and Sami Research Office and the
Information Service of the Arctic Centre have compiled a Sami research
database, RADJU.
RADJU includes data on over 200 research projects concerning
Sami-related topics in areas such as culture, education, environment,
land management, politics, and reindeer husbandry. The projects are
carried out by different institutions and researchers in Finland and in
other countries. The database is primarily for researchers and students.
RADJU will be expanded in the future to include more Sami research
information as well as notes about research on other Indigenous peoples
in the Arctic.
Comments regarding this database are welcome. Information on research
and developmental projects that are not yet included is also
appreciated. Thank you for your attention and help.
The term "Radju" is northern Saami and means store or collection.
