Students from the Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies, the interdisciplinary Arctic Studies minor program, and University Honors Program are working to understand the social and environmental impacts of climate change through the lens of science, art, and activism as tools to communicate and motivate.<\/p>\n<p>This interdisciplinary lens was highlighted by Brandon Ray\u2019s recent guest lecture. Brandon has a master\u2019s degree in Atmospheric Science and is completing joint master\u2019s programs in the Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies and the School of Marine and Environmental Affairs. Brandon\u2019s thesis explores how non-states actors frame the Arctic renewable energy debate in Canada and the United States. His lecture on Arctic geopolitics and people gave the students an appreciation for the unique aspects and complexity of climate change in the Arctic.<\/p>\n<p>Students are deepening their knowledge of the Arctic through group projects that explore how the eight Arctic nations and Indigenous people of the North are contributing to, being affected by, and working to mitigate climate change locally and internationally. As part of their projects, students also consider how literature, music, art, and activism are impacting the people and politics of the region.<\/p>\n<p>The course culminates with students reflecting on their hope for the future\u00a0Earth and the people who will inhabit it. In a letter to children two generations hence, students express their hopes for the world.<\/p>\n<p><em>The course is taught by Robert Pavia, an affiliate faculty with the Center and the School of Marine and Environmental Affairs.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Arctic &amp; International Relations\u00a0is a Henry M.
