A major aim of the Nansen Legacy is to overcome traditional boundaries between researchers of different disciplines and institutions in an endeavor to join knowledge and forces for a new and better understanding of the changing Arctic climate and ecosystem. Workshops and webinars are important platforms for cross-disciplinary and cross-institutional dialogue, cooperation and generation of new ideas.
