Two participants per institution will be selected to represent their university during the simulation, and work together with other teams. All participants will receive a certificate of participation and three awards will be distributed.<\/p>\n<p>The workshop will take place online on\u00a0Saturday 14 November.<\/p>\n<p>This workshop addresses the complex challenges in the Arctic region, explicitly focusing on climate change as a potential conflict driver. Project Arctic employs the methodology of simulations in order to reveal why the Arctic region is inextricably linked to climate change and conflict and explore the potential outcomes of future policies in the region. The workshop aims to develop robust negotiation, debating, critical thinking and analytical skills. The objective is to offer a framework for young public policy experts to enhance their skill sets in a competitive setting with diverse stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Participants must attend the entire workshop in order to receive a certificate for the course, delivered by CIVICA. We expect participants to be open and willing to actively participate in the exercises.<\/p>\n<p>Students will be assigned roles and will conduct individual and in-pairs research regarding the specific role they have been allocated to.<\/p>\n<p>All teams will design and present a policy brief of their recommendations for the Arctic Region, from the perspective of the stakeholder they represent (e.g., the EU).<\/p>\n<p>At the end, three awards will be granted to teams from the CIVICA universities:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Best individual speaker<\/li>\n<li>Best policy brief<\/li>\n<li>Best teamwork.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to apply<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Please complete <a href=\"https:\/\/survey.hertie-school.org\/jfe\/form\/SV_eyUQ4TWXQ2eObEW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this application<\/a> form by 20 October 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Please contact civica@hertie-school.org for any questions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CIVICA &#8211; The European University of Social Sciences invites applications to a Project Arctic: A simulation of climate-induced conflict in the Arctic Region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":9059,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9427","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-events","odd"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 -
