This Way Up

This Way Up is the Arctic Council podcast that introduces you to the people and stories shaping a changing Arctic. Each episode explores an important topic in the Arctic through storytelling, where guests share their own unique experiences and ideas. But you won’t just learn about the issues, you will hear personal stories from across the circumpolar Arctic that showcase what makes the region and its Peoples so unique and inspiring. Whether you live in the Arctic, are familiar with the region or just curious, each episode opens your eyes to new perspectives on key Arctic issues, and perhaps even inspires you to take action. New episodes will be available in Fall 2025.

 

This Way Up is hosted by Jessica Cook of the Arctic Council Secretariat and Rosa-Máren Magga of the Indigenous Peoples’ Secretariat. Original music by Emil Kárlsen, used with permission.
