Principles and Guidelines

Ethical research

We will follow the IASSA Principles and Guidelines for Conducting Ethical Research in the Arctic (2020), as well as the ethical guidelines on geoengineering research as introduced in the London Protocol (2009) and by Hubert (2020)The Inuit Circumpolar Council (ICC 2021) guidelines on Ethical and Equitable Engagement with Inuit Communities are also followed as we aim to choose culturally appropriate ways of communications and interaction in the project and seek long-term relationships with communities. We treat Indigenous knowledge with respect. We will seek to hire locally, and locally engaged individuals will be invited to co-author publications (including analysis and interpretation) along with the rest of the team. This gives opportunities to participate in an international research project with different scientific disciplines. We are following the AGU ethical guidelines on climate intervention research and closely working with the EU Co-Create project.
