Abstract

The Task Force on Arctic Marine Cooperation (TFAMC, Task Force I), that worked in 2015-2017 was established with the general aim of enhancing Arctic marine cooperation and it identified nine functional needs for improved cooperation. The Fairbanks Declaration in spring 2017 established a “new mandate for the Task Force to build upon this work by presenting terms of reference (ToRs) for a possible new subsidiary body, and recommendations for complementary enhancements to existing Arctic Council mechanisms, for consideration by Ministers in 2019.”
