Seminar Series Outer Space Serving Humanity: Environmental Security
This interdisciplinary seminar series examines the benefits of space systems and services to the world. The seminars are jointly organised by ISPL and UCL Space Domain, to celebrate 60 Years in Space and 50 Years of Lawful & Peaceful Use. Topics will include food security, climate change and the environment, and disaster response.
The first seminar addressed the Outer Space Treaty and the benefits it has brought to humanity. Topics included the status of the Treaty and current developments, what the future holds and the preservation of space systems.
This second seminar will examine ways that outer space contributes to environmental security. Speakers from ESA, UCL, Leicester and Reading Universities will address the participants, and there will be discussion following the sessions.
Registration is essential, and details are included in the Programme.
Date and time: Tuesday 10 April 2018, 2 – 5 pm
Venue: Charles Clore House, 17 Russell Square, London WC1B 5DR
