New Sergej Zilitinkevich memorial award has been recently established by the Atmosphere and Climate Competence Center (ACCC), European Meteorological Society (EMS), Finnish Geophysical Society, Finnish Foundation for Aerosol Research (FAAR), International Eurasian Academy of Sciences (IEAS), National network\u00a0 Institute for Atmospheric and Earth system research (INAR Finland) and World Meteorological Organization (WMO) to honour the research by the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.atm.helsinki.fi\/peex\/index.php\/portfolio-items\/sergej-zilitinkevich\/\">Russian physicist Sergej Zilitinkevich<\/a>\u00a0(1936-2021). The Sergej Zilitinkevich memorial award is delivered annually to a creative scientist who has made breakthroughs in atmospheric sciences or oceanography.\u00a0 The Zilitinkevich memorial award acknowledges climate change, air quality research as fundamental assets in our route to find solution to Grand Challenges at the global scale. Furthermore, the joint International Eurasian Academy of Sciences (IEAS) meeting between\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.atm.helsinki.fi\/m\/ieaseurope\/index.php\/2-uncategorised\/2-home\">Europe<\/a>, Russia and China headquarters (HQ) was organized for the first time. All the HQ introduced their recent activities and future plans.

The aim of this ACCC Innovation Forum is to\u00a0<em>detect, discuss\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0<em>develop<\/em>\u00a0cooperation ideas with various partners. The Forum have several roles. It will\u00a0<em>connect<\/em>\u00a0new stakeholders to the ACCC cooperation,\u00a0<em>develop<\/em>\u00a0ideas from research to social, business and other innovations,\u00a0<em>facilitate\u00a0<\/em>concrete multi-stakeholder climate projects,\u00a0<em>enhance<\/em>\u00a0innovation processes related to atmospheric and climate sciences,\u00a0<em>promote\u00a0<\/em>awareness of climate sciences in other fields of society and business. In addition to key note presentations on the results of the \u201crecent IPCC AR6 with emphasis on land carbon sequestration\u201d and on the \u201cPathway to for reducing net emissions in Finland\u201d we had moderated discussion with the ACCC Finnish stakeholders representing academic networks, public and private sectors as well as civil society organizations. In addition, international perspectives were given by the invited speakers \u2013 Valery Falkov, Minister, The Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, Antti Kurvinen, Minister, Ministry of Education of Finland and Maria Cristina Russo, Director, Global Approach &amp; International Cooperation, DG Research and Innovation, European Commission. The focus of the talks was on international research collaboration, targets of climate neutrality and, especially, on the monitoring systems. The Minister Valery Falkov emphasized Russia\u2019s goal to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. Russia has just launched a pilot project to establish Carbon Polygons and invites all interested countries and scientific organizations, including Finland, a long-term and good partner of Russia, to join this project and ensure the exchange of accumulated knowledge and experience (<em>minobrnauki.gov.ru\/press-center\/news\/?ELEMENT_ID=44816<\/em>). The discussions on the future monitoring systems continued during the ACCC Global Observatory \/\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.atm.helsinki.fi\/peex\/\">Pan-Eurasian EXperiment (PEEX)\u00a0<\/a>online meeting, where new Russian Carbon Polygons, Black Sea SDG Observatory network were introduced in more details.

The sustainable development of the Arctic regions under fast changing climate is built on science-based knowledge. During the last two years AASCO has build a network of Arctic researchers focusing the holistic process understanding of the Arctic and cold regions atmosphere \u2013 ocean \u2013 terrestrial ecosystems. The AASCO aims to\u00a0bridge this research gap and identify the future research needs in this context. The current AASCO research network gathers together ca 100 arctic researchers. Furthermore, it as import to involve people living at the Arctic and the citizen science to the AASCO process. The next steps of the process for 2022, and beyond, will be planned in collaboration with the Prince Albert Foundation, U-Arctic and Arctic Council \u2013 Sustainable Arctic Observation Network (SAON).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Friday 10<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0December<\/strong>\u00a0marked the 4th Sofia Earth Forum by bringing together ecumenical approaches, decision-making perspectives and scientific research. The final day of the ACCC Impact Week focused on citizens\u2019 engagement and civil society collaboration. The overall theme of this day was \u201csafe climate\u201d, partly drawn for the ACCC slogan\u00a0<em>safe climate and clean air<\/em>. Speakers of the first session included Metropolitan Ambrosius (Orthodox Church of Finland), Archbishop Tapio Luoma (The Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland), Juhani Damski (Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of the Environment of Finland), Anita Lehikoinen (Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of the Education of Finland), Kimmo Tiilikainen (Director General of the Geological Survey of Finland) and ACCC Director Academician, Prof. Markku Kulmala. Friday\u2019s final session, a panel discussion on civil society, research and climate safety, was one of ACCC\u2019s first public steps in establishing a stronger collaboration with civil society actors such as non-governmental organization (NGOs) and humanitarian actors. The panel brought together climate and sustainability experts and representatives of Finnish NGOs, including Saara Kankaanrinta (BSAG), Ada Segerstam (The Guides and Scouts of Finland), Taneli Saari (Ymp\u00e4rist\u00f6ahdistuksen Mieli, Tunne ry), Heta Heiskanen (Finnish Ministry of the Environment), Sami Pirkkala (Finnish General Secretariat on Sustainable Development, Prime Minister\u2019s Office) and Karoliina Pilli-Sihvola (Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry). The planning and co-designing of socially impactful activities will continue in 2022 to strengthen the link between research and civil engagement.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The presentations are available based on request, by e-mail to the\u00a0<em>accc-virtual-office(at)helsinki.fi<\/em><\/p>\n<p>If you have not given us feedback yet, we appreciate if you take time to do so by filling a brief form:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/forms.gle\/dAB5UPqMBq3eKqVQ6\">https:\/\/forms.gle\/dAB5UPqMBq3eKqVQ6<\/a>.
