EU-PolarNet has a clear mandate to co-design an integrated European Polar Research Programme together with different stakeholders from the beginning of the creation process. By that, it shall guarantee that the research programme will generate tangible benefits for society. Work Package 4 of the project (Interaction with Stakeholders and end-users) has identified stakeholders (deliverable 4.5) related to the polar regions and the generated stakeholder map has been used to reinforce the interactions and promote stakeholder participation in different surveys and events. EU-PolarNet has been actively searching for interaction with stakeholders and various possibilities of engagement have been used, promoting participation at established events, such as the Arctic Circle Assembly; SCAR Conferences and Arctic Frontiers, and organizing several stand-alone events.
