The space sector is undergoing transformations, raising economic, political, legal, environmental and societal questions. These changes challenge established institutional frameworks, reshape international cooperation and governance and invite us to reconsider the place of space activities in contemporary societies.
The conference will bring together researchers from different disciplines to discuss these ongoing transitions. The programme will feature presentations addressing a wide range of topics, including the emergence of New Space, the governance and geopolitics of space activities, environmental sustainability, space education, the future of space science and the social and cultural imaginaries surrounding space exploration.
The conference will also feature a round table on “Women and Space”, offering an opportunity to reflect on gender, representation and inclusivity in the space sector.
By bringing together different disciplinary perspectives and approaches, this event aims to foster dialogue and encourage interdisciplinary discussions on the transformations shaping the present and future of the space field.
Participation is open to everyone interested in these topics. The conference will take place both in person at TBS Education and online.
