Thanks so much for inviting me - really enjoyed speaking to the students and hearing their thoughtful and thought-provoking questions! 🙌 What an amazing-sounding programme, btw:
We were honored to host Dr. Ingrid Medby (Newcastle University) at the NU Debate Institute! She spoke on Arctic governance, geopolitics & IR, and discussed her new book, “Arctic State Identity.” Our students used their newly acquired knowledge from Dr. Medby in practice debates!
