Both polar regions share some similarities &#8211; both are cold, icy, and sparsely populated (if at all); and are remote and difficult to access. While the Arctic has communities of both indigenous and local residents beyond the Arctic circle with a history going back thousands of years; the residents in the Antarctic are far fewer, and mainly consist of research and support staff at the various research stations, and the logistics operations that manage these. The lands encircling the Arctic Ocean are governed by the 8 Arctic countries, who cooperate with each other (and others) under the auspices of the\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/arctic-council.org\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arctic Council<\/a><\/strong>. This includes the 6 Indigenous peoples\u2019 organizations have been granted\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/arctic-council.org\/en\/about\/permanent-participants\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Permanent Participants<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0status and have full consultation rights in connection with the Arctic Council\u2019s negotiations and decisions.The Antarctic is a continent that is surrounded by the Southern Ocean, and is under international governance through the\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/ats.aq\/index_e.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Antarctic Treaty System<\/a><\/strong>. It is important to acknowledge and understand these differences, as both polar regions can act as natural laboratories capable of providing extremely valuable insights into physical, biological and ecological processes at lower latitudes. The polar regions, particularly the Arctic, are often called the sentinels of a changing climate, as the communities and ecosystem in the polar regions are subject to multiple stresses from a changing climate and environment. The changes already happening in the Arctic are changing the lives of the residents and affecting their wellbeing. As the often repeated statement goes, \u201cwhat happens at the poles does not stay at the poles\u201d, changes at the polar regions exert a far wider influence around the globe.<\/p><p>Longstanding regional entities such as the\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.europeanpolarboard.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">European Polar Board<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and the Reuni\u00f3n de Administradores de Programas Ant\u00e1rticos Latinoamericanos (<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rapal.org.ar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">RAPAL<\/a><\/strong>), bring together a range of organisations working in the polar regions. The EPB includes national polar programmes, research institutions, government departments, national funding agencies and university centres from across Europe, representing the combined strength of European polar research; while RAPAL includes national Antarctic programs in South America that collaborate on scientific, logistical and environmental issues in the Antarctic. Due to the harsh and remote nature of the polar regions, extensive international cooperation and collaborations are a necessity for successful scientific research. Leveraging the existing collaborative links due to organisations like the EPB, large EU funded projects like\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eu-polarnet.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EU-PolarNet<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0are successful in further strengthening international co-operation in polar research, and sustaining a meaningful dialogue with international polar stakeholders.

The\u00a0<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sochic-h2020.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SO-CHIC<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0projects aims to understand and quantify variability of heat and carbon budgets in the Southern Ocean through an investigation of the key processes controlling exchanges between the atmosphere, ocean and sea ice using a combination of observational and modelling approaches.<\/p><p>2) Infrastructure and logistics: Infrastructure in the polar regions are inherently difficult to access and costly to manage. There are several cooperation initiatives between different organisations to improve access to polar infrastructure for the European research community. The EPB has set up an initiative for identifying opportunities to harmonise polar infrastructure requirements between\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.europeanpolarboard.org\/action-groups\/action-group-on-infrastructure\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EPB Members<\/a><\/strong>, and one of its key output so far is the\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.europeanpolarboard.org\/infrastructure\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">European Polar Infrastructure Database<\/a><\/strong>.\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.arice.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ARICE<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eu-interact.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">INTERACT<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0aim to better capacities for Arctic research by providing transnational access to arctic marine and terrestrial stations respectively.<\/p><p>3) Capacity building, and Diversity in polar research: European research in the Arctic and Antarctic is notable for its excellence, diversity and societal relevance, achieved through extensive collaboration between disciplines, institutes and countries. Building capacity in both individuals and the smaller polar programs remains an important goal for both organisations and projects working in the polar regions. Organisations like\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scar.org\/capacity-building\/capacity-building\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SCAR<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/iasc.info\/capacity-building\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IASC<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0have direct actions towards this aim (Fellowships for early career researchers, indigenous engagement, Medals and honours to recognise excellence in research and outstanding service). Organisations like the EPB and RAPAL support both small and large Members and provide opportunities to collaborate and share knowledge. Association of Polar Early Career Researchers (<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.apecs.is\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">APECS<\/a><\/strong>) brings together and builds the capacity of undergraduate and graduate students, early career postdoctoral and faculty members, early career professionals, educators and others with interests in Polar and Alpine regions and the wider cryosphere.
