GRID-Arendal is a non-profit private foundation, established in 1989 by the Norwegian Ministry of Environment. It is a collaborating centre to UNEP, the United Nations Environmental Programme, which works to support governments around the world with their awareness-raising and decision-making towards environmental management. GRID-Arendal’s mission is to disseminate environmental knowledge enabling positive change. This is achieved by organizing and transforming sound scientific environmental data into rigorous information products, delivered through innovative communication tools, environmental assessments and capacity-building services to the relevant stakeholders.
GRID-Arendal has a long and varied history of successfully communicating environmental issues and solutions to a variety of target audiences within the Arctic, and to global audiences. The Arctic region has been one of the principal focuses of the organisation since its founding, with GRID- Arendal being UNEP ́s key polar centre and helping to communicate Arctic issues to a global audience. One of the major publications produced by GRID-Arendal is the Arctic Permafrost Atlas, a key outcome of the H2020 Nunataryuk project.
