Forum organizers: Government of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), Northern Forum, North-Eastern Federal University named after M.K. Ammosov

The main topic of the II Northern Forum on Sustainable Development is “Transport infrastructure in the North and the Arctic”. Nowadays, the topic of industrial development of the Arctic shelf and shipping is increasingly attracting the attention of various countries, also the space of scientific research is expanding, and the attitude to the climate change problem is getting more serious. In the Arctic region, the greatest interest is promising routes through the Northern Sea Route and the Northwest Passage. Obviously, for the development of the Arctic, it is necessary to create an efficient transport infrastructure: sea and river ports, airports, road and railways, trunk pipelines. A special role in the development of the Arctic belongs to aviation, including small aircraft, as well as all-terrain vehicles.

In 2020, the Forum will consider three aspects of the development of transport infrastructure:

  1. Regional transport networks - life supporting systems of the northern regions. The development of regional systems as a prerequisite for the formation of national transport systems;
  2. National transport communications - coherence of the North, The Arctic with the regions of Russia, ensuring national interests in arctic and northern territories. Development of national transport networks as a prerequisite for the formation of international. (North Sea path, road and railways);
  3. World logistics and development of transport systems – problems of international transit, the formation of transcontinental highways and intermodal transport and logistics knots (Northern Sea Route, "One Belt - One Road", Transcontinental Main Line, Cross Polar airlines).
