Communicating Arctic Science to Policymakers (CASP) (2017-2018)

To reinforce IASC’s commitment to providing objective and independent scientific advice on issues of science in the Arctic and communicating scientific information to the public, in April 2017 IASC Council decided to establish the action group on Communicating Arctic Science to Policy Makers (CASP). Based on the review of the objectives and activities of IASC and its Working Groups, CASP is tasked with the development of a set of recommendations for IASC to enhance its provision of advice on issues of science in the Arctic and the communication of scientific knowledge to policymakers.
