The AGU oral session "Arctic Education and Outreach: Effective Ways of Engaging Diverse Learners in Arctic Science II" took place on December 15, 2025 from 2:15 to 3:45 pm CT. This session focused on how the changing polar environments have created important scientific and societal concerns in high and lower latitudes. In this session, effective approaches, frameworks and examples of how to promote a broad understanding and awareness of the changing Arctic and the related societal implications were shared.

The NNA-CO hosted a virtual NNA Arctic Outreach Fair that took place as part of the Alaska Forum on the Environment. The goal of this event was to share NNA projects with community members across Alaska to encourage new connections and community engagement.

The AGU oral Session "Convergence Research in the Arctic: Drawing from Diverse Disciplines and Knowledge Systems to Address Complex Societal Challenges" took place on December 17, 2025 from 2:15–3:45 pm CT. The session was focused on how the Arctic region, alongside transforming demographic, economic, and security conditions, is confronting accelerated climate and ecological changes. Arctic research has increasingly adopted convergence approaches that bring together academically-trained knowledge systems, Indigenous knowledges, and practitioner expertise to more holistically understand the interconnectedness of nature, social systems, and the human-built environment.
