We seek nominations of candidates with enthusiasm and time (approximately 40 hours/year) to dedicate to ARCUS, who are willing and able to help ARCUS fulfill its vision and mission and achieve its strategic goals (see: https://www.arcus.org/arcus). We particularly invite nominations of individuals with experience in and connections to: Arctic system science, Alaska Native organizations, Arctic infrastructure issues, or U.S. federal research and education initiatives.

Nominees are welcome from any career level and type of organization. We strive to embody our value of "Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging" in our Board.
