The collaboration builds on the legacy of Konrad Steffen who tragically died at Swiss Camp in Greenland in 2020. Today, 12 experts on natural hazards in Switzerland met with experts from Greenland to discuss research needs and actions necessary in mitigating natural hazards in Greenland such as landslides and avalanches. Participants range from early career scientists to professors, professionals from companies and representatives from the government and society.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Chair of Greenland Research Council Josephine Nymand says:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">We hope that our new collaboration can help facilitate long-term capacity building around natural hazards management in Greenland. Our Swiss colleagues are well-experienced in this field, and international research cooperation is crucial for Greenland in the development of national monitoring systems and mitigation plans for natural hazards.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c48b1c6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"c48b1c6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/polarjournal.ch\/en\/2022\/03\/16\/switzerland-and-greenland-against-avalanches-landslides-and-climate-change-effects\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Read more: \"Greenland and Switzerland against avalanches, landslides and climate change effects\", Polar Journal<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7d248e0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"7d248e0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-74f44bf elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"74f44bf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>More information:<\/p>\n<p>Contact secretary Maliina Jensen, Greenland Research Council, telephone 222090, e-mail: malj@nanoq.gl<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-34d4002 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"34d4002\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, Greenland\u2019s Minister of Finances, Mineral Resources, Justice and Equality, Naaja Nathanielsen opened the Konrad Steffen Workshop on natural hazards in Greenland. 8 March 2022 This week, The Swiss Polar Institute and Greenland Research Council are discussing how Swiss expertise can support the monitoring and risk assessment of natural hazards in Greenland.
