abstract
In December 2013, after China was granted observer status in the Arctic
Council together with five other countries, the China-Nordic Arctic
Research Center (CNARC) was established with joint efforts by Nordic
and Chinese research institutes. Since then, CNARC has evolved from a
nascent and immature conception to a real and functioning entity that will
eventually develop into a full-fledged platform for academic exchanges
between China and Nordic countries. The development and potential of
CNARC has attracted attention from other Arctic and non-Arctic countries,
marking a highlight of international cooperation on Arctic issues since
2013.
