Sara Wheeler on Arctic exploration, at 5x15

18 Jan 2010

Speakers: Sara Wheeler

Sara Wheeler uses her her own journey around the magnetic north to illuminate the lives of people who live in this harsh region of the world. She begins with the 5000 mile stretch of the Russian Arctic, before moving on to Alaska, Canada, Greenland and Lapland. In each place she discusses the problems associated with cultural collision and explores the Arctic paradox.
