An overview of the 2025 Polar Early Career World Summit and associated online events!
PSECCO and the Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS) held the Polar Early Career World Summit from March 22-24 at Boulder, Colorado, U.S., that brought together 120 early career researchers (ECRs), scientists, professionals, Indigenous scholars and knowledge holders connected to the polar regions with the goals to share polar research priorities, strengthen polar early career networks, and amplify the voices of the polar early career community through this event.

Provide input on polar early career priorities for the next IPY by June 11, 2025!
The 5th International Polar Year (IPY) 2032-2033 and its legacy will impact the careers of the current polar early career community, yet mid- and senior-career researchers often shape IPY priorities. Today’s polar early career researchers (ECRs) have an unprecedented opportunity to provide input on what they want priorities to be for the 5th IPY.

Attend Polar Early Career World Summit online engagement events and share input on polar early career priorities
To best represent the polar early career community, we need input from as many community members as possible. To achieve this, we are hosting virtual events, taking place 27–29 May (depending on your time zone). These interactive sessions are specifically for ECRs who weren’t physically at PECWS. The virtual events will provide you with: *An overview of PECWS and the polar early career community priority synthesis process *An opportunity to assess materials produced at the summit, specifically by providing live feedback on priority statements and their relevance to you and your work *An understanding of the synthesis products you are contributing to
