Seminar: Governing uranium in the Arctic

Natural resources have a huge impact on governance in the Arctic. Watch the full seminar.

Governing the Arctic is high on the political agenda among the five Arctic states, and one key issue affecting the relations between the Arctic states is the wealth of natural resources in the Arctic.

The seminar is broken into two panels: the first focusing on uranium and rare earth elements, followed by a broader discussion on natural resources, geopolitics and the Arctic as a whole.
