Travel Course for 15 Nordic and Russian journalists Big Cod and Big Politic invites.

 

Marine Research Institute (Institute for Marine Research IMR) in Bergen and Tromsø has a unique Norwegian-Russian collaboration with Marine Research Pinro (The polar scientific research institute for the fish industry and oceanography (PINRO) in Murmansk for over 50 years. Russians and Norwegians cooperate on research of the Barents Sea marine -biological life and the Centre's assessments are crucial for the region's future: Would global warming, new shipping routes north of Russia and the oil and mineral extraction affect nature? Will cod spawning grounds in Norway move eastward, when the water gets warmer? Will the immigrant giant crab eradicate all other life - or is it more than a financial gain for the northernmost towns in the North? NJC will work with the Marine Research Institute invite 15 Nordic and Russian journalists traveling with the Marine Research vessel and the ship's scientists. (March 2012)

Barents Press is a network for Finnish, Norwegian,Swedish and Russian journalists in the Barents Region, and counts as one of Europe's most successful journalistic network across country borders.

It is unique in many way; mostly because of its vast geographic coverage which includes many societies and native populations.

The initiative to the foundation of the BP association was officially taken at the Barents  ministerial in Kirkenes, January 1993. At this time, there was a kind of euphoria in which everything seemed possible. Soon, especially the Norwegians were eager to create connections towards northwestern Russia; Murmansk and Arkhangelsk.

In Saariselkä, Finland, February 18-19 1995 the descision was taken to let Barents Press be an open forum with a purpose to develop contacts and arrange seminars. The leadership function constists of an international board of two members from each country. The presidency is circulating and is parallel to the country of the chairman of the Barents ministry.

In each of the member countries, national boards are elected.
