Assuring a Safe, Secure and Sustainable Space Environment for Space Activities

type

oral

Description

Space Activities provide a wealth of increasing benefits for people on Earth. However, space actors have come to realize that the benefits of the space infrastructure for the world community depend on technical, legal, policy and political means to keep a safe, secure and sustainable space environment. This session will explore the progress being made within multilateral fora, the private sector and individual countries in supporting the goal of a safe, secure and sustainable space environment. It will especially examine activities within UNCOPUOS and the EU proposed Code of Conduct for Space Activities.
