UArctic Congress 2026: Session proposal deadline extended to 31 July

The call for session proposals for the UArctic Congress 2026 has been extended to July 31! Please share with your colleagues, networks, partners, etc.

The UArctic Congress 2026 will take place in Tórshavn, Faroe Islands from May 26 to 29, 2026. The Congress themes are aligned with the Kingdom of Denmark’s priorities for its Arctic Council chairship program, emphasizing an inclusive approach to sustainable development, Indigenous engagement, and holistic ecosystem management.

We invite session proposals aligned with the following themes:

  • Sustainable Economic Development and International Cooperation
  • Oceans
  • Climate Change in the Arctic
  • Biodiversity
  • Indigenous Peoples and Northern Communities

We especially encourage sessions that include the participation of Indigenous peoples, youth, and local communities, and that apply transdisciplinary approaches to research and dialogue. Sessions can include oral and/or poster presentations, panel discussions, and roundtable dialogues. Note that we only accept proposals sent via the online submission form, now available on the call pages.
