In this episode, we focus on Arctic biodiversity, which supports food security and the livelihoods of Arctic communities. Yet today, with climate change accelerating, these ecosystems are under threat of irreversible loss.

Moderating the session was Archana Singh, Scientist D at the National Centre for Polar and Ocean Research, India.

This conversation was recorded live at the Arctic Circle India Forum, held in New Delhi on May 3–4, 2025, and is part of the Polar Dialogue.
