The Arctic Centre at Umeå University is a connectivity hub for Arctic interdisciplinary research and education where we bring together both early and senior career researchers with an Arctic research agenda. We do this through the Arctic Research School for Doctoral students and by a network of and for associated researchers. We coordinate and organise collaborative activities, and work for increased collaboration between researchers and society to achieve the sustainability goals in the Arctic.
