As the first ISSW held in an Arctic setting, we’re diving into the unique challenges of risk management in a rapidly changing high-Arctic climate. This is also the first ISSW in Scandinavia, and we’re excited to bring the motto, “A Merging of Theory and Practice,” to life by involving a diverse range of practitioners and spotlighting the complexities of managing risks in remote areas. With about 600 participants from around the globe and many more joining us virtually, ISSW 2024 promises to be an unforgettable event! Our program features an impressive lineup of more than 300 oral and poster presentations, showcasing cutting-edge research and innovative practices. Alongside the traditional ISSW topics, we’ve curated special sessions focused on the unique challenges faced in Artic areas.
