As global space activity accelerates—with large satellite constellations, in-orbit servicing, and expanding lunar and deep-space missions—the need for effective governance frameworks has become increasingly urgent. This workshop will bring together researchers, policymakers, and industry experts to explore emerging challenges in space governance, including sustainability, safety, regulation, and the role of international institutions and private actors.

The workshop will also examine how space is represented in popular culture and how public perception, media, and social engagement influence space policy, investment, and international collaboration. Click here for more information
