Tertiary Education in the Arctic regions

Map showing regional differences in the percentage of people in the Arctic with tertiary level education

Map Facts

The map shows the share of population with tertiary level education indicated by the intensity of the colour scale (darkest indicate higher shares and lightest indicates lower shares). High shares can be seen in regions in Western Canada, Alaska, Troms (Norway) and Iceland in contrast with other areas of the Arctic such as Nunavik and Nunavut (Canada) and Greenland where shares are relatively low.
