Opportunity for Arctic Indigenous Scholars

The Arctic Indigenous Scholars Program is accepting applications for scholars to travel to Washington, DC until Monday, 6 November 2023 at 5:00 p.m. AKST. This opportunity creates a space for Indigenous scholars to educate and inform policy- and decision-makers engaged in Arctic issues in the nation’s capital. Applications are due by 6 November 2023.

We define a scholar as an expert within their own knowledge system. This includes hunters, fishers, and gatherers; those that process and store food; health aides; and others. It includes youth, elders, and adults. Your education may have come from the land, the water, or a classroom.
