Polar Research and Policy Initiative, commonly known as PRPI or The Polar Connection, is a foreign policy think tank dedicated primarily to the Arctic, Nordic, Baltic and Antarctic regions, as well as energy and environment issues. PRPI is headquartered in London, United Kingdom.[1] Its goal is to promote sustainable regional development.[2]

History

Founding

Polar Research and Policy Initiative was founded by Dr Dwayne Ryan Menezes and Mr. Christophe Milhères in 2015-2016 as the UK's first policy think-tank dedicated primarily to the

UK Antarctic Heritage Trust and former Governor of the Falkland Islands and Commissioner of South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands; and Jock Wishart, polar explorer.[7][8] Its web portal, Polar Connection, was launched thereafter in July 2016.[9]

Current status

The mission of PRPI, as stated on its website, is to:

  • Raise the profile and understanding of the Polar Regions in the UK and across the Commonwealth;
  • Support polar researchers and polar research institutions in maximizing the visibility, impact, and reach of their research;
  • Increase and sustain the scholarly, cultural, political, and commercial engagement of the UK and relevant Commonwealth member states with the Polar Regions (especially the Arctic Council member states);
  • Help address some of the toughest political, social, economic, and environmental challenges facing polar people and places;
  • Facilitate greater bilateral trade and investment between Arctic states and Commonwealth member states.[10]

Over the past two years, its focus has gradually expanded: while PRPI had a

World Ocean respectively.[12] Following the 2016 Arctic Circle Assembly, it also introduced a new BRICS engagement forum.[13]

Activities

Since its inception, PRPI's most prominent features have been the provision of research, analysis and commentary; high engagement with policymakers, industry leaders, academics and Indigenous representatives; ongoing dialogue with national governments and multilateral fora; and active participation at national and international conferences. It has also aligned its principal activities with the key priorities of the incumbent Chairs of the Arctic Council: the United States, 2015–2017, on "improving economic and living conditions in Arctic communities";[14] and Finland, 2017–2019, in "exploring[ing] how the Agenda 2030 framework [2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development] can be used in Arctic cooperation for the benefit of humans and nature".[14]

Research, Analysis and Commentary

PRPI publishes its research and provides analysis and commentary both via its digital platform Polar Connection (www.polarconnection.org) and through partner platforms such as Arctic Today and other national and international media outlets. PRPI Fellows also make their research available through monographs, book chapters in edited volumes and research papers in journals. Its research interests are reflected in its organisational structure, which features three

theme-specific units; industry-specific units; and stakeholder engagement forums.[15]

Stakeholder Engagement

PRPI positions itself as the nexus between stakeholders in policy, industry, academia, civil society and the media, and it provides a platform for dialogue and cooperation between different stakeholders. It does so in a variety of ways:

Parliamentary Evidence, Policy Briefs and Industry Briefs

  • UK House of Commons Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy Committee, 'Leaving the EU: Negotiating Priorities for Energy and Climate Change Policy Inquiry';[32][33]
  • UK House of Commons Scottish Affairs Committee, 'Scotland and the High North Inquiry';[34][35][36][37][38][39]
  • UK House of Commons Science and Technology Committee, 'Closing the STEM Skills Gap Inquiry';[40][41]

PRPI also provides policy briefs and industry briefs, when requested, to policymakers and industry leaders.
