[CRYOLIST] Arctic Climate Change, Economy and Society project summerschool 23-27 Sep 2013: few places still available

Arctic Climate Change, Economy and Society (ACCESS)
Cross-sectoral Summerschool 23.-27. September 2013
Haus der Wissenschaft (House of Science), Bremen, Germany

*** We have a few open places – application still possible ***

We cordially invite applications for the ACCESS cross-sectoral
summerschool organized and hosted by the ACCESS partners Alfred Wegener
Institute – Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) and
Ocean Atmosphere Systems GmbH (OASys) and co-sponsored by the Helmholtz
Graduate School for Polar and Marine Research (POLMAR).

The summerschool is open for 20-25 participants from Science, Economy
and Administration and is intended for graduate level and above.

The aim of the summerschool is to provide the students an opportunity to
learn about the different aspects of Arctic climate change, changes in
the economic sectors of shipping, tourism, fisheries, oil and gas
exploitation and governance. Experts from all of these fields will give
an insight into recent developments and present their view on chances
and risks connected to the changes in the climate system and associated
changes in the economic sectors.
The students will be able to work in small groups on topics related to
cross-sectoral questions in the context of Arctic climate change,
economy and society. They will present their results to a group of
experts and are provided with the opportunity to publish them in the
ACCESS Newsletter.

There will be no fee for the participation in the summerschool. Costs
for meals, accommodation and transport will have to be covered on the
students' own expenses.

Applications will be received by Lilian Schubert
(Lilian.Schubert@awi.de) and Michael Karcher (michael@oasys-research.de).
Additional information on the school as well as suggestions for
accommodation and transport will be updated regularly and sent to the
participants.
