Navigating the New Arctic (NNA)

Navigating the New Arctic (NNA)

Supporting highly collaborative research toward a more resilient and healthy Arctic that is understood and stewarded for its role in global systems. 

Navigating the New Arctic (NNA) is one of National Science Foundation's (NSF) 10 Big Ideas. NNA projects address challenges in the rapidly changing Arctic using convergence research. NNA aims to empower new research partnerships from local to international scales, support the next generation of Arctic researchers, enhance efforts in formal and informal education, and integrate the co-production of knowledge where appropriate.

We honor and acknowledge the Indigenous peoples, nations, and traditional territories of the lands in which the offices reside.
