At the event, the PermaIntern and SEDNA projects were presented, together with brief presentations about the Canadian Permafrost Association mentorship program and current permafrost-related activities within UArctic. Both projects are funded by the UArctic networking grants.
The event was attended by 30 people, including students, university teachers, and industry representatives. The PermaIntern project was also presented at the Education and Outreach session of the ICOP conference.
