The Emerging Leaders explored topics and adventures that were specific to the Arctic mindset and engage in crucial and contemporary discussions on environment, resource management, security, the development of business and technology in the Arctic.听Furthermore, the Emerging Leaders presented a professional view on the Arctic at the Arctic Frontiers Policy conference in Troms酶 alongside academia and decision makers from government and business. Amelie's main research interests are Arctic climate and sea ice prediction, so this year's Emerging Leaders conference was a perfect fit听for her!听
