NATO in the North Course: 26-01 N2C

N2C is a three-day, 12-hour course that examines NATO’s evolving role and presence in the Arctic region amid rapidly changing security dynamics. The curriculum analyzes how recent developments, including Russia’s war against Ukraine, increased Chinese regional activity, and the accession of Finland and Sweden to NATO, have fundamentally altered Arctic security considerations. The course explores how these changes affect NATO’s core tasks of deterrence and defense, crisis prevention and management, and cooperative security, while examining the growing importance of resilience in Arctic operations.
