Interested persons have to contact the AWI department for communication and media for evaluation of their concept of work before a firm commitment for participation can be released. The department then signs an agreement with the applicant about the obligations of participations and utilization rights for the obtained material.

Alfred Wegener Institute welcomes contacts of expedition participants with press and reporting about the work by journalists.
