The Meaning of Ice: Co-production of knowledge and community action in a changing Arctic

Drawing on experience from over two decades of close collaboration with Inuit communities in the Arctic, Dr. Fox will illustrate the powerful ways our understanding of the changing Arctic climate can be advanced when we link Inuit knowledge and visiting science.

The Meaning of Ice: Co-production of knowledge and community action in a changing Arctic

What does ice mean to different people? How can linking different ways of knowing about ice add to our understanding about the Arctic, and how it is changing? What does this mean for the rest of the world and our sustainable future? Dr. Shari Fox will address these and other questions in a lecture that explores sea ice and the changing Arctic environment through community-led research, harvesting, photography, science, art, and more.
