 This two-week, 4074km journey brought together 130 students, from 20 countries, including every circumpolar nation to connect to nature, to their peers, to new knowledge and perspectives across key topics including climate change, ocean literacy, healthy communities, sustainable development goals and the blue economy, and to a greater sense of self and their goals for the future.

Guided by a team of scientists, elders, artists, historians and visionary leaders youth were challenged, inspired and empowered. Here is a recap of their journey.
