The Space Generation Summit is a two-and-a-half-day meeting that will gather 200 young international delegates to refine and articulate a youth vision on the future of space activities. It will be held in conjunction with the World Space Congress – the largest gathering of space scientists within the last decade – and will build on the work of the Space Generation Forum of the Third UN Conference on the Exploration and Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (UNISPACE III).
Delegates will be selected several months prior to the meeting, and will work together on-line in the months preceding the summit to create the
Summit program, and to draft Summit documents. The intentions of the SGS are to take full advantage of the unique opportunities that the World Space Congress offers, and to communicate an overall vision for accelerating our pace in space. If you are interested in attending, are between the ages of 18 and 35, and are a space enthusiast, we encourage you to apply.
The Summit is facilitated by the Space Generation Advisory Council – the body through which student and young professional views are brought to the
United Nation’s Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space. The SGS builds on the std>ss of the Space Generation Forum that was held as part of
UNISPACE III in July 1999.
