Support for IASC grantholders during COVID-19.

With coronavirus (COVID-19) changing circumstances, we understand that you might need to change your plans. We understand you need to follow COVID 19 directives in your regions in planning and we want to be flexible about changes to your project.

We also understand that COVID-19 may have changed the needs of Arctic communities, research priorities, and how we reach out to regional and community partners. Your proposal can (and is encouraged to) reflect on the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. And finally, it should be pointed out that reimbursement for non-travel related expenses can be requested.

If you are thinking about a proposal, please be proactive in seeking consultation!

The deadline for proposal submission is 20 August 2020. Please submit completed template via email to gunnarmg@unak.is
