About us

 

The Center for Arctic Security and Resilience serves as the lead for strategic and operational Arctic-related national security and related endeavors. CASR’s subject matter experts contribute to the field’s knowledge and scholarly base through research, consultation, and education to meet the challenging issues shaping the Circumpolar North and Arctic Region.

The Arctic Security part of the center provides leading expertise on Arctic issues involving U.S. national security, national defense, military, homeland defense, and homeland security. Many members of CASR have broad expertise and experience with the public-sector authorities that have responsibilities in such areas, nationally with the Department of Defense and State Department as well as NORAD and NATO at the international level.

The Arctic Resilience component of CASR provides prominent expertise on Arctic issues involving climate change and adaptation, disaster response and recovery, and climate security that also includes numerous security subtopics involving human security, food security, energy security, and corporate continuity in Alaska's Arctic Indigenous communities. CASR's resilience leaders have considerable experience and credentials with regard to climate security, where CASR has a strong capacity to provide knowledge and experience in policy and disaster management that compliments the natural sciences and engineering-related research efforts, esp. at UAF
