Synopsis

Climate change is causing numerous environmental impacts in the Arctic, which, in turn, are disrupting the way of life of many Indigenous communities. The history of these communities and their phenomenal capacity for adaptation suggest that they will succeed in adapting, but at a very high cost. Some adaptation solutions have been proposed, but further research into this still largely unknown environment will be necessary. It is strongly recommended that those studying the situation and analyzing potential solutions incorporate the knowledge of Indigenous peoples, who have managed to survive in these extreme conditions thanks to their detailed understanding of the environment and who could make a valuable contribution.
