F5 Education gets a boost from the NRC

A week ago, our project received funding from the Norwegian Research Council to help us achieve optimal education during the International Polar Year. The funding that we applied for covers costs associated with post-expedition presentations, production of a documentary movie clip (the stars of which will be your polar kids from the f5 team) and organizing photography exhibitions for the general public.

In this way, the Frozen Five project will continue even after we return back from the ski trip (yes, we will return contrary to the belief of many). Through this blog, we would also like to invite institutions/schools to contact us by email and express an interest in a post-expedition presentation at their venue. We’ll do our best to work something out! In the meantime, we would be grateful if you could spread the word of the F5 project to your students/friends/family and enjoy the spring!
