As part of the CHARTER project, 13 large-scale posters in English and Finnish were created and compiled into an exhibition.
The exhibition located in the glass corridor of Arktikum in
Rovaniemi was opened last week in connection with the final meeting of the CHARTER
project. The posters will remain on display until the end of the year and will later
be published in digital form.
The posters were designed by
Philip Burgess and Irina V.
Wang, with Finnish translations by Jenni
Katermaa.
– While it might seem surprising
in today’s digitally dominated world, there is still a strong desire for
large-format print and image combinations, especially if they can also link outwards
to digital content too, Philip Burgess from Arctic Centre says.
The exhibition aims to summarize and visualize the findings of the
multidisciplinary and wide-ranging research project.
–
Tailoring the content to the audience is key! Research projects increasingly need to
communicate their findings in multiple ways, Burgess ads.
The CHARTER project had the goal of advancing the adaptive capacity of Arctic
communities to climatic and biodiversity changes. The project was headquartered in
the University of Lapland’s Arctic Centre and involved over 21 research
institutions, 9 countries and over 70 researchers between 2020 and 2025. The project
was funded by the EU Horizon 2020 Research and Innovations Programme (Grant
#869471).
