The Thematic Network on Telecommunications and Networking shall bring together people interested in investigating and developing telecommunication and networking in the Arctic region.
As a cross-cutting topic between the thematic networks, it calls on other networks to share their views on what the lack of proper connectivity means in their field and what benefits properly working connectivity could offer.
The goal is to increase knowledge of the status of communications system and inform about new developments in the field related to the Arctic areas. The second goal is to collect user needs, problems, and benefits related to connectivity from various fields.
