Our research has been published in the following peer-reviewed publications:
GENDER-SPECIFIC CHEMICAL EXPOSURE IN ARCTIC COMMUNITIES.
In this article, published together with colleagues in the ICEBERG project, we explore the challenges that Arctic populations face with regard to contaminant exposure and its intricate relationship with traditional diets. Particular attention is given to the unique situation of northern women, whose dietary habits influence their exposure to these contaminants.
MAPPING WOMEN+ OF THE ARCTIC: REMAPPING THE NARRATIVE OF POLAR EXPLORATION.
In this Research Note of the Polar Journal Special Issue on “Contemporary methodologies and approaches in Polar Social Sciences”, Carol Devine, Charlie Hewitt and Tahnee Prior reflect on their interactive and participatory digital cartography project which fits squarely within contemporary polar social science research, methodologies, and dialogue on the history, future, and gender dimensions of the Arctic.
TOWARDS GENDER EQUALITY IN THE ARCTIC.
The Handbook of Arctic Governance is a comprehensive exploration of the multifaceted issues surrounding governance in the Arctic region. Divided into six sections, the section on Ethics & Justice features a chapter on the degree to which circumpolar cooperation has engaged with gender equality and reflects on opportunities and pathways for moving toward a just, sustainable and secure life for everyone in the region. The contribution is written by Malgorzata Smieszek-Rice and Tahnee Prior.
HOLD MY BABY: IMPROVING INSTITUTIONAL POLICIES OF PARENTING AND FIELD-BASED RESEARCH.
As a part of the ICEBERG project, Christine Liang & Tahnee Prior co-authored a blog post on the intersection of parenting and fieldwork, as well as their accompanying survey, for the European Geosciences Union (EGU) blog.
COLLECTION: WOMEN OF THE ARCTIC.
This special issue of the Polar Record is dedicated to research on women of the Arctic and broader issues of gender equality in the region. The collection includes original contributions from Prior & Smieszek, Seag et al., Heleniak, Main, Devine, and Kangasluoma.
GENDER EQUALITY FOR A THRIVING, SUSTAINABLE ARCTIC.
This peer reviewed article was written by the team of lead authors of the Pan-Arctic Report on Gender Equality in the Arctic and published in Sustainability’s Special Issue on "Shaping Tomorrow’s Arctic".
FINDING MARGUERITE AND TOOKOOLITO: “MAPPING WOMEN OF THE ARCTIC”
In their Arctic Yearbook Briefing Note, Carol Devine, Tahnee Prior, Gosia Smieszek explore the stories of women across the Arctic and the gendered dimension of map-making in their project: #MappingArcticWomen - “A way of re-imagining the Arctic through female placenames”. You can read more about “Mapping Women of the Arctic”: here.
WOMEN OF THE ARCTIC:
BRIDGING POLICY, RESEARCH & LIVED EXPERIENCE.
In their Arctic Yearbook Briefing Note, Gosia Smieszek, Tahnee Prior, and Olivia Matthews reflect on “Women of the Arctic: Bridging Policy, Research & Lived Experience”, a non-academic event hosted at the 2018 UArctic Congress in Helsinki, Finland. The authors unpack key points from the event’s three panels, share what’s next - a digital storytelling platform on gender in the Arctic - and conclude with a call for women who live in, work on, or engage with the Arctic to share their photographs to provide a fuller picture of “Women of the Arctic”.
