In this episode, we look at the role of non-Arctic states in Arctic governance, and how broader shifts in the global order are affecting the region.

Moderating the session was Larry Ibrahim Mohammed, PhD Research Scholar at UiT - The Arctic University of Norway and Coordinator of the Afro Polar Initiative.

This conversation was recorded live at the Arctic Circle India Forum, held in New Delhi on May 3–4, 2025, and is part of the Polar Dialogue.
