Science and stories from literally the coolest places on the planet! It’s said that the poles are the thermometer for the rest of the planet- what happens to the rest of us, has already been happening there for years. It’s easy with the state of the world currently to bunker down in a little private bubble, but its more essential than ever that we broaden our horizons and remember that there’s a world out there that is incredible- and needs us! And if that sounds too heavy for you then instead why not join us to escape as we take to on audial adventures to these strange and remote and beautiful places? We’ll speak to guests who’ve looked polar bears in the eye, who drive 12k ton ships through ice 9ft thick or who spend years doing science with no-one but three other people and thousands of penguins for company! These are Polar Times we live in. Join us, and we’ll take you there! An APECS Production (Association of Polar Early Career Scientists). Music credits: ”Scuba” - Metre Unaltered License: CC BY-NC-SA

Welcome back for the sixth and final episode of Sense of the Arctic, a podcast miniseries from the APECS Science and Diplomacy Project Group in collaboration with the Polar Times.
We round out our series by hopping over to Greenland and chatting with Dr. Gitte Reimer, the rector at the University of Greenland, and Dr. Elizabeth (Beth) Rink, a professor at Montana State University whose research examines sexual and reproductive health in Greenland through community-based participatory research.
The conversation touches on past and current uses of community-based participatory research in Greenland and how the methodology has evolved over the past three decades. We also discuss Gitte's efforts to implement Greenland's recently-released national research policy, which emphasizes the local and nationwide importance of community-based participatory research.
We hope you enjoy this important final episode of Sense of the Arctic!
