The University of the Arctic (UArctic) is a network of universities, colleges, research institutes, and other organizations concerned with education and research in and about the North.

UArctic Thematic Networks are thematic collaborative initiatives between organisations and institutions, members of UArctic, aimed at increasing the knowledge generation and sharing across the North. Empowered by local knowledge and international level academic expertise, they facilitate development of multidisciplinary solutions for challenges in the Arctic. 

The COIL@UArctic Thematic Network is one of the many Thematic Networks. A result of a partnership between institutions and organisations, united by passion for COIL and the Arctic, and its vision is aligned with the vision of UArctic: to create a strong, engaged, informed, and dynamic North, creating better lives and environments for all Northerners.
