课程简介

课程名称:北极发展 概述:欢迎参与《北极发展》!这是由阿尔伯塔大学和挪威北极大学合作推出的北极系列在线课程中的第三个。在这个为期四周的课程中,我们将探讨在不断变化的北极地区,区域发展的相关问题。您将研究自然资源在土著、北欧、俄罗斯和北美北极地区的作用,不同地区资源管理的策略,以及这些如何影响社区规划和发展。此外,我们还将分析气候变化对北极的重大影响,以及不同北极社区为应对迅速变化而实施的适应措施。 通过本课程,您将了解到北方社区所面临的机遇与挑战,并对在急剧变化的北极中区域发展的表现有更深入的理解。 课程大纲: 模块 1:理解北极 描述:在这一模块中,您将学习北极的基础知识,包括北方可持续性、地缘政治、资源管理和发展。我们将探讨“桌四个北极”的视角,并为后续课程中的资源管理、社区管理和发展问题打下基础。 模块 2:北极的资源管理 描述:在这一模块中,您将深入了解北极的可再生和非可再生资源,并探讨四个北极地区采用的不同资源管理策略,以及“公地悲剧”的案例研究。最后,您将反思北极理事会的形成及其在资源管理中的角色。 模块 3:北极的社区管理 描述:本模块将转向北极居民及其社区规划与发展。您将探讨在日益人口增多的北极,社区如何应对特有问题,建立韧性。 模块 4:变化中的北极发展 描述:在本模块中,您将最终探讨在变化中的北极,发展到底是什么样子。我们将讨论气候变化对北极的影响,以及北极社区所实施的一系列结构性和非结构性适应措施。此外,还将关注在巨大的环境变化面前维持和推动四个北极地区发展的策略与政策。

课程大纲

Name:Module 1: Understanding the Arctic

Description:Welcome to the first step of your journey in Arctic: Development! In this short, introductory module we'll cover the basics of the Arctic, northern sustainability, geopolitics, resource management and development. To do this, we'll first see how the region is usually viewed through the particular lens of "The Four Arctics". At the end of this module, you'll have the context and vocabulary to tackle some of the issues in resource management, community management, and development, covered in the rest of the course.

Name:Module 2: Resource Management in the Arctic

Description:Welcome back! Now that you have an understanding of the four Arctics and some of the basic concepts affecting development in these regions, it's time to deep-dive into resource management. In this module we'll first take stock of some of the renewable and non-renewable resources in the Arctic, and explore different resource management strategies employed in each of the four Arctics, encountering a number of "tragedy of the commons" case studies. Finally, you'll reflect upon the formation and function of the Arctic Council, and its role in resource management.

Name:Module 3: Community Management in the Arctic

Description:Now that we're aware of some of the resources in the Arctic and how they're managed, it's time to move on to the people that live there. In this module, we'll turn our attention to community planning and development efforts in an increasingly populated Arctic, and how communities in various Arctic regions form resilience to some of the unique problems faced in these regions.

Name:Module 4: Development in a Changing Arctic

Description:If you're reading this, you've reached the very last module of the course- congratulations! Our previous three modules have given us the background needed to finally tackle the largest question posed in the course: what does development look like in a changing Arctic? In this module, we'll see how climate change is impacting the Arctic, and examine a number of structural and non-structural adaptations that different arctic communities are implementing. Finally, we will look at the strategies and policies directing and maintaining development across the four Arctics in the face of immense environmental change.

Welcome to Arctic: Development! In this third in a series of Arctic MOOCs, brought to you by a unique partnership between the University of Alberta and UiT The Arctic University of Norway, we will be exploring regional development in a changing arctic. In this 4-week course, you will investigate the role that natural resources play across the Indigenous, Nordic, Russian and North American Arctics, different strategies for resource management in different regions, and how these affect community planning and development efforts in an increasingly populated part of the world. We'll also see how climate change is dramatically impacting the Arctic, and examine a number of adaptations that different arctic communities are implementing to combat rapid, climate-influenced change. By the end of this course, you will have an idea of the opportunities presented to and difficulties faced by members of northern communities, and gain an understanding of just what regional development looks like in a changing Arctic.
