ARTS facing forward
In honour of Face Forward: Memorial Up North, we've dipped into our arts news archives for a selection of stories on our past northern projects.
In October 2013, Drs. Arn Keeling and John Sandlos co-hosted a workshop on extractive industries in the Arctic with the prestigious Rachel Carson Centre.
Rudy Riedlsperger, then a graduate student in the department of geography, presented a paper at the 2012 International Polar Year Conference on the importance and vulnerability of Labrador's northern trails.

While she was the 2012 Labrador Institute post-doctoral fellow Rachel Hirsch worked on collaborative food security through a community freezer program. The initiative continues to thrive two years later.
