The main theme of the conference is changing from year to year. The selected theme for 2009 The Age of the Arctic was first used by Professor Oran Young in 1986. He was then forecasting an increasing major human focus, exploitation and conflicts in the Arctic on a political, economical and environmental scale. During the recent few years his forecast has been moved to the top of the global agenda.
