Polar Knowledge: Aqhaliat Report

The Polar Knowledge: Aqhaliat Report is an online, open-access publication by Polar Knowledge Canada (POLAR). It serves to disseminate and raise awareness of new knowledge generated by POLAR and its Canadian and international partners. The report presents results from the following areas:

  • Scientific and technological research led or supported by POLAR
  • Projects that mobilize research results to support decision-making
  • Outreach, engagement, and capacity-building efforts related to research

The Aqhaliat Report is released periodically to reflect significant updates and developments in these areas.

The word aqhaliat is the Inuinnaqtun term for the northern lights, i.e. aurora, which are an important cultural symbol connecting Indigenous peoples throughout the circumpolar regions. Auroras occur at both poles, encompassing the Arctic and Antarctic bearings of POLAR's mandate.
