Alumni Expedition: Iceland 2023
Overview
From October 13-19 members of our alumni family will be headed to Iceland for an expedition focused on arctic policy, climate change, the sustainable blue economy, and Iceland’s unique geography. Our small team of seven will be accompanied by SOI Eductors and two educators from Kativik Ilisarniliriniq, who work within their home communities.
The expedition concludes at the Arctic Circle Assembly, where our team will be applying their newfound knowledge as we host panels, engage other youth leaders in Arctic Policy, and meet with high-level delegates!
