UNE NORTH connects researchers, educators, policymakers, and industry leaders from across Maine and the North Atlantic region to implement collaborative approaches for building resilient communities, healthy environments, and thriving economies.

Grounded in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and with its growing network of regional partnerships including Iceland, Canada, Sweden, Norway, and the U.K, UNE NORTH will train a new generation of leaders, inform policy through research, promote interdisciplinarity and the co-creation of knowledge in all its activities, and support Maine’s leadership role in the North Atlantic.
