SUMMARY:Arctic Science Summit Week 
LOCATION:Arkhangelsk\, Russia
DESCRIPTION:The thematic focus of the 21st Arctic Science Summit Week (https://en.assw2
 019.science/), established by the International Arctic Science Committee (I
 ASC), is "Climate Change and Development of the Arctic Population." The mai
 n venues for the event are the Northern Arctic Federal University and the N
 orthern State Medical University.\n\nAbout 400 Russian and foreign scientis
 ts are expected to arrive in Arkhangelsk. For the first time, the city will
  receive such a considerable delegation of scientists from more than 23 cou
 ntries conducting systematic research in the Arctic. Dozens of roundtables 
 and discussions will take place, hundreds of reports and presentations will
  be delivered. Scientific sessions on 22 topical issues, closely interrelat
 ed with the thematic focus of the Week, will be held.\n\nHosting ASSW in Ru
 ssia provides an opportunity to show the enormous potential of the country 
 in researching, developing, and preserving the natural potential of the Arc
 tic to the international scientific community. The topic of this scientific
  week is especially important for Russia, since the most Indigenous people,
  localities, and industrial centers in the Arctic are concentrated in its n
 orthern territories.\nSchedule of the Arctic Science Week:\n\n - May 22-23
