Collaboration and Challenges in a Changing Arctic

In this episode, we turn our attention to how Nordic countries and India are engaging with the questions of blue economy and maritime security in the context of the Arctic and beyond.

As Arctic waters open and interest in ocean resources grows, new challenges and opportunities are emerging around sustainable development, marine governance, and strategic cooperation.

Moderating the session was Maria Elizabeth Joseph, Assistant Director of the Ananta Centre.  

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.
