Organization details

The University of Tromsø is the world's northernmost university. It is located at a latitude of nearly 70 degrees North, and although being rather small it covers a large array of subjects. They include all basic directions in the natural sciences and many advanced subjects related to the unique position in the Arctic.

The city of Tromsø was traditionally the gateway to the Arctic, the place where whaling and polar expeditions started. A lively and cultural city, known as the "Northern Paris", it annually gathers crowds of people to noticeable events like the Northern Lights musical Festival, Midnight Sun Marathon etc. Summer is a high season in Tromsø with plenty of attractions.

The meeting will take place on the small island of Sommarøy. It is a place of great natural beauty, and a modern Conference Center makes it an ideal location for a Workshop. Not far from the city, it faces the Ocean, so the participants will have an opportunity to fully enjoy the Arctic nature.
