PhD course Human Resources in Arctic extractive industries
Huge blueberries that were VERY sweet greeted us in St John’s during our first walk
The UArctic Thematic Network on Arctic Extractive Industries have organized a PhD course at Memorial University of Newfoundland in St John's- - "Human Resources in Arctic extractive industries" Sept 10-16, 2012. It was a small but extremely diverse group that we got together
in St John's, the capital of Newfoundland,
Canada. The participants to the course came from 5 different
institutions and 7 different countries, to learn for a week more on a
broad variety of topics related to what the economists and business
studies people call 'human resources' and we in anthropology call
'people'.
