Invitation to seminar: Space as a Global Commons

Access to space has evolved over time. Recently, the accessibility has become increasingly cheaper and the range of actors able to access space and use it for different purposes has widened.

The Swedish Presidency of the Council of the European Union is inviting to a seminar on Space as Global Commons. The seminar will take place at the Swedish Permanent Representation to the EU in Brussels.

This seminar aims to feed the discussion on how to achieve a fair and sustainable use of space, which is a topic currently discussed in the Council Space Working Party, but also to contribute to the general discussion on a responsible behaviour in space. The EU has the possibility to lead by example in the development of an approach where fairness and sustainability in the use of space are key.
