Working Across Landscapes

The Northern Latitudes Partnerships include three regional partnerships in Alaska and western Canada. We work to help communities be culturally, environmentally, and economically secure in a rapidly changing North and envision a future where northern lands, waters, and ways of life are sustained for generations.

How We Work

We are a group of agencies, Indigenous organizations and governments, nonprofits, academic researchers, and individuals collaborating to build resiliency for our communities and lands across geographic, jurisdictional, and disciplinary borders.

Our projects begin by understanding the needs of multiple decision makers.

They end in tangible outcomes to inform climate change adaptation, food security, environmental hazards, and resource management. Along with building diverse partnerships, our work also involves joint funding and resource sharing. We recognize the value and role of both Indigenous Knowledge and western science in our work.
