The NNA-CO organized and facilitated an NNA International Meeting (hybrid event) at ASSW 2022. The meeting focused on highlighting existing international NNA research partnerships and opportunities for new international collaboration. NNA projects showcased their work and discussed how they were approaching international collaboration in the Arctic, where they had seen progress and opportunity, and where persistent challenges remained. The meeting coincided with the Arctic Observing Summit (AOS), and perspectives were invited on how NNA research was contributing to Arctic observing systems. Current NNA researchers, collaborators, and others interested in learning more about NNA and related opportunities were invited to attend.

This virtual workshop was a collaboration between the Arctic Data Center, ELOKA, and the NNA Community Office, focused on the presentation of open science principles and best practices. Open science was explored through the lenses of research reproducibility, Indigenous data sovereignty, and community data management. The first half of the four-hour session focused on FAIR Principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reproducible), ethical data practices, and community data management, and the second half provided participants with the opportunity to explore data organization and principles of “tidy” data structures through hands-on and small group activities.

As a key part of NNA Community Office (NNA-CO) funded activities, the NNA-CO facilitated the formation, implementation, and outputs of four Convergence Working Groups. The NNA-CO established initial functions and goals, while intentionally leaving many design elements and thematic focuses undefined to allow for community input and co-design across the NNA project community. To inform CWG development, the NNA-CO sought targeted input from February 15 through April 1. Community members were invited to share comments via a Google Form, email with the heading “CWG Input,” comment directly on the document, or attend an open comment and discussion session on March 16, 2022.

The NNA-CO hosted the virtual Arctic Educators Fair on February 16, 2022, providing an opportunity for NNA projects to connect with Alaskan educators. The fair focused on Alaska, with international outreach fairs planned for future years, and aimed to disseminate education ideas, learning products, and opportunities for student or educator engagement produced by NNA project teams. Participants were encouraged to share the opportunity with Arctic educators in their networks.
