ArcticStat
ArcticStat is a Canadian-led project aimed at responding to the demographic gaps noted in the Arctic Human Development Report (AHDR). The project intends to centralize relevant Arctic research data as well as facilitate comparative research between circumpolar statistical agencies, databanks and other data sources. It is further complementary to the work of other SDWG projects (e.g. SLICA, ECONOR, and ASI ). The project deliverables are the website which includes a statistical database on the socio-economic conditions of the people of the Arctic, and the establishment of the metadata section containing hyperlinks to documents that explain the characteristics of the data found in ArcticStat. Work on ArcticStat will continue during the Danish Chairmanship (2009-11). It is anticipated that ArcticStat will play a pivotal role as the SDWG moves toward the development of an integrated SDWG Arctic human development monitoring mechanism.
