Established in 2011, The Arctic Institute is an independent, nonprofit 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization headquartered in Washington, D.C with a network of researchers across the world.

We envision a world in which the diverse and complex issues facing Arctic security are identified, understood, and innovatively resolved.

Both a think-and-do-tank, we believe that policy recommendations and capacity building programs must be rooted in strategic, field-based research.

That’s why we’re committed to providing practical projects backed by rigorous research.
