Proceedings of the ARCUS Interdisciplinary Research Committee, an ad-hoc committee established in 2021 by the ARCUS Board of Directors to play an active volunteer leadership role in realizing ARCUS’ 2021–2025 Strategic Plan goals and objectives. The committee convened virtually for 1–1.5 hour-long meetings six times between May 2021 and January 2022 to discuss interdisciplinary research collaboration in the context of wider Arctic research programs and initiatives; identify challenges; explore existing collaborative research programs, tools, and resources; and to recommend specific actions that might be taken to increase the capacity of the wider Arctic research community to productively undertake collaborative, co-produced, and convergence research. This report synthesizes the ideas compiled by the committee and is intended to serve as a resource for anyone working to support the growing number of collaborative research projects and programs taking place in the Arctic today.
