Webinar: Perspectives on EU Arctic Strategy
Join Seas at Risk and the Clean Arctic Alliance for the Ocean Week webinar on EU Arctic Strategy on 2 October 2026.
The Arctic is at a crossroads. Climate change, geopolitical tension and growing economic interest are reshaping the region, with increasing pressure for shipping, fossil fuels and deep-sea minerals.
