From October 20th-22nd we will be hosting the inaugural annual meeting of the Arctic PIRE team, here in Washington DC. To culminate this multi-day conference, we are proud to invite you to a panel discussion led by some of our foremost experts in Arctic Sustainability from around the world. Speakers in this panel will address topics including: social sustainability in Arctic conditions, the economic role of cities, Arctic urban planning, and the political framing of sustainability in the Arctic. A reception will follow the panel discussion, providing the public and policy-makers an opportunity to network and forge relationships with our network of international research partners. We would love to see you there!

I am interested in your conference Friday on Arctic urban sustainability. I can’t attend in person — I’m in Anchorage — but would love to get any written materials or podcasts and maybe later talk to the presenters. I signed up on the RSVP form but could participate only from afar, if that option is available.
