This report gives an account of the work of the standing Arctic Council Secretariat (ACS) for
the year 2015. This was the third year of operation for the ACS, and 2015 represented the
second year of the two-year work plan for the ACS which was approved by the Arctic Council
in 2013.
2015 was an interesting year for the ACS in many respects as it worked to support the work
of the Arctic Council, and the year included several significant milestones. Perhaps most
significantly, the Arctic Council met at the Ministerial level in Iqaluit in Canada on 24 April to
conclude the second Chairmanship of Canada (2013-2015) and to welcome the second
Chairmanship of the United States (2015-2017).
