Greenland Science Week

We are really excited to announce our opening speakers for both days of the Greenland Science Conference 2025! 🎉

Day 1 will begin with an opening speech by Naalakkersuisoq Vivian Motzfeldt. As the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Research in the Greenlandic government, Vivian Motzfeldt will be able to provide some political context to the importance of scientific research in Greenlandic society. 🌍

Day 2 will start with an opening speech by Mari Kleist, Chariman of the Greenland Research Council and Pro Rector of Ilisimatusarfik, University of Greenland. We’re looking forward to having Mari Kleist reflect on the importance of collaboration between research, education, and society in shaping Greenland’s future. 🇬🇱

We look forward to welcoming them both and having them set the scene for the conference next week!
