Osaamistavoitteet
The Arctic Inspiration Workshop is an introduction to local Lappish culture. The philosophy of the Arctic lifestyle is discussed and the stories of the Arctic area are told. The group will travel somewhere in Lapland. The setting will offer peace, quietness, solitude, pristine nature, light and darkness, fire and warmth, and design inspiration. The tools for surviving in the Arctic wilderness are introduced. The goal is later to be able to organize similar wilderness experiences by using rentable cabins (www.luontoon.fi) or even in the open air with respect for everyman’s rights.
