Rectors Meeting 2023 in Monaco

The UArctic Rectors Meeting will be held in Monaco on January 12-13, 2023 with the theme "Academic cooperation as a solution for achieving sustainable goals in a rapidly changing Arctic world".

UArctic, the Oceanographic Institute, Prince Albert I of Monaco Foundation, and Université de Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, in collaboration with the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, invite the leads of UArctic higher education institutions to attend the UArctic Rectors meeting in Monaco on January 12-13, 2023.

The meeting will focus on how Arctic institutions and members of UArctic in general can work more closely while also seeking intersectoral connections to address the new challenges we are facing in a rapidly changing world, notably:

• The role of the Arctic and northern oceans in what is called the “Green Shift”
• The impact of climate change and the new geopolitical context on Arctic societies and communities: opportunities and challenges from renewed external interest for the Arctic
• The central Arctic as an ocean not only losing its ice cover, but seen also as a resource
• How to develop and intensify cooperation both within academia and from an intersectoral point of view in such times of drastic, accelerating change
