Consortia must consist of at least two UArctic memembers. The lead applicant must come from a Canadian UArctic member institution. Prospective applicants include, but are not limited to:
•a scholar with research experience in the North, hoping to support a new graduate student as they establish their own professional relationships with Northern and Indigenous partners;
•an emerging scholar looking to expand their relationships and partnerships with Northern and Indigenous communities so they better understand the research needs and desires of Northern people.
•experienced researchers looking to enlarge and deepen their Northern and Indigenous relationships and networks through knowledge sharing activities.

Engagement between Northern Canadian UArctic member institutions, other Canadian members, and other UArctic member institutions for collaborative, co-created research and education initiatives is encouraged.
