Compendium to the Report on the State of Northern Knowledge in Canada (Canadian Polar Commission)
The report on the State of Northern Knowledge in Canada (March 2014) analyses the significant gains made since the beginning of International Polar Year 2007 with a view to determining today's high-level research opportunities. Focusing on the perspectives of northerners, it highlights new knowledge that can be used to address many of the issues northerners have identified as important.
