Title

Assuring a Safe, Secure and Sustainable Environment for Space Activities

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 focus on the LTS Follow-up process at UNCOPUOS, the Guidelines agreed upon, new initiatives for STM and the way forward.
