NNA Research: Collaborative Research: Frozen Commons: Change, Resilience and Sustainability in the Arctic (Frozen Commons,  # 2127348).

The Frozen Commons project explores the interconnected ice, snow, and permafrost landscapes that sustain Arctic communities and ecosystems by merging science, arts, and local and Indigenous Knowledge systems. Defined as shared resources collectively used and managed by Indigenous Peoples, local communities, governments, and external stakeholders, these “frozen commons” are critical to life in the Arctic. However, as the region experiences unprecedented climate-induced changes, ice and snow melting and permafrost’s thawing signals profound disruptions to cultural, social, and economic systems.
