You are invited to participate in the ARCUS 18th Annual Meeting and
Arctic Forum 2006, which will be held in Washington, D.C. on 25-26 May
2006. All sessions will be held at the National Association of Home
Builders Conference Center located in downtown Washington, D.C.
The focus of this year's Arctic Forum is "International Arctic Research
at a Turning Point: Innovations and Collaborations for the Future."
Presentations from a diverse range of perspectives will address
questions such as:
- What new methods, approaches, or innovations will prove successful and
sustainable to advance our understanding of the Arctic?
- What are the barriers to success in formal and informal partnerships
and what is needed to overcome these barriers?
The Forum will be co-chaired by Craig Tweedie of the University of Texas
at El Paso and Volker Rachold of the International Arctic Science
Committee (IASC).
In addition to highlighting current research and policy issues relevant
to the Arctic through the Arctic Forum, the ARCUS annual meeting serves
to gather together members of the arctic research community, key agency
personnel and policy makers, as well as ARCUS member institution
representatives, Board of Directors, and staff.
