About the editors
The first ever UArctic Congress science section in St.Petersburg in September 2016 has taken its themes from ICARP III statement and report. The third International Conference on Arctic Research Planning (ICARP III) provided a framework for identifying Arctic science priorities for the next decade; coordinating various Arctic research agendas; informing policy makers, people who live in or near the Arctic and the global community and building constructive relationships between producers and users of knowledge. It was an effort of over 20 Arctic organisations and after the final conference in Toyama 2015 first the statement was given and then in early 2016 the report. The key points given at the statement were used in planning the UArctic congress themes:
1. Vulnerability of Arctic Environments
2.. Vulnerability of Arctic Societies
3. Local and traditional knowledge
4. Building long-term human capacity
5. New markets for the Arctic, includingtrade, tourism and transportation.
