The Norwegian Scientific Academy for Polar Research Statement on Ukraine

Written By The Polar Academy

The Norwegian Scientific Academy for Polar Research (NVP) aligns with the International Science Council in expressing concern regarding the current military offensive in Ukraine. We stand behind the ISC statements that “…. the current conflict in Ukraine and its consequences will hamper the power of science to solve problems when we should be harnessing it…. the severe outcomes that conflict will have on the research and academic community…” and “Ultimately the isolation and exclusion of important scientific communities is detrimental to all.”
