🌍🚀 The latest study ‘United in Science’ of World Meteorological Organization (WMO) with the contribution of the UNOOSA is out! The study brought together the latest climate science-related updates from key partner organisations and highlights the critical role of geospatial technology for a more sustainable future. 3 key takeaways: 📡 The study highlights how advances in satellite technology and Earth Observation have greatly improved the frequency and accuracy of environmental monitoring, climate predictions, and weather forecasts. 🤝 In order to leverage space-based Earth data for global climate goals, the paper advocates for increased international cooperation, creative finance and optimizing satellite technology for meteorological, water, and environmental applications through enhanced governance and public-private collaborations. 🌐 Tracking important climate variables like ocean temperatures, aerosols, and hydrological patterns depends heavily on high-resolution satellite data. Weather forecasting and efforts to adapt to climate change are also improving as a result of these advancements. 📖 For more details and to access the full report here: https://lnkd.in/dbUXJ_bK #ClimateAction #SpaceForClimate #UnitedInScience #EarthObservations #WMO #UNOOSA #eOurCommonAgenda #GlobalGoals UN Platform for Space-based Information for Disaster Management and Emergency Response (UN-SPIDER)

🛰️ Space technologies are reshaping how we address global challenges — at World Space Business Week, UNOOSA is joining the space industry to discuss how the private sector can partner with the United Nations to meet the increasing needs of nations and utilise space solutions to implement the Sustainable Development Goals. 🚀 As the #SpaceEconomy expands, innovation from the private sector plays a critical role in addressing global challenges like climate change and sustainable development. UNOOSA welcomes the industry’s contributions and is proud to work together to ensure that these advancements serve humanity’s broader needs — especially in delivering on the #SDGs. 📊🌱 Our Director, Aarti Holla-Maini, is joining Airbus Defence and Space for a panel at #WSBW to address one of the most pressing issues in the space sector: the data accessibility gap. Together, they will explore how public-private collaboration can empower nations to harness satellite-derived data for effective decision-making and sustainable progress. 🤝 The message is clear: #Space is a platform for shared innovation. By working together, international organisations, governments, and industry can ensure that space innovations drive development, create opportunities, and help nations meet the Sustainable Development Goals. 🌍✨ ▶️ Watch as Simone Sasse of Airbus Defence and Space explains what drives private sector companies to engage in multilateral fora and work with international organisations like #UNOOSA.

🌍 At the G20 Space Economy Leaders Meeting in Brazil, UNOOSA is joining global leaders in exploring how space technology can drive innovation, economic growth, and address our planet’s most pressing challenges. As the world grapples with climate change, food and water insecurity, and the widening digital divide, space has become an essential tool for solutions. From monitoring deforestation to tracking greenhouse gas emissions, satellites provide critical real-time data that helps nations take decisive action. 🌱🛰️ The meeting emphasizes the need for greater cooperation—countries working together through data sharing, joint missions, and harmonized policies to ensure space remains a driver for sustainable development. Equitable access to space services and capacity building are crucial in empowering all nations, especially developing countries, to use space data to address global challenges. Space technology offers unprecedented opportunities for climate action and disaster preparedness, but to fully realize its potential, we must ensure space is preserved for future generations and its benefits are shared by all. #G20 #SpaceEconomy #SpaceForAll #ClimateAction #Sustainability #Innovation G20 Brasil 2024

🇺🇳 UNOOSA and the International Telecommunication Union meet at the ITU #SpaceSustainability Forum. Here are the key takeaways from Director Aarti Holla-Maini‘s remarks: 1️⃣ All eyes are on the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space to deliver global space governance. COPUOS has developed 65 years of treaties, principles, resolutions, and guidelines. 📜 They‘re only words on paper unless implemented. 2️⃣ It’s not realistic to expect global consensus on a new multilateral treaty that has buy-in from all nations. However, the Guidelines for the Long-Term Sustainability of Outer Space (#LTSGuidelines) are binding when implemented into national legislation and regulation - we must support States in achieving consistent implementation. 🌐 3️⃣ #UNOOSA, as Secretariat to the inter-governmental COPUOS, is working to develop a common understanding of different aspects of space sustainability. 🌍 4️⃣ This starts with supporting the establishment of national space laws & policies and helping States understand what the different components of space sustainability actually mean. What does data-sharing mean? What data is it? How do operators act on conjunction assessments? We need to level the playing field in terms of knowledge & understanding around such matters so States can take effective decisions. 💡 5️⃣ UNOOSA has been collecting Guideline B.1 data since 2019 - now looking at how to operationalize it as a core component of Space Traffic Coordination. 🛰️ 6️⃣ Concerning Active Debris Removal and On-Orbit Servicing - working with nations to identify space objects that can be deorbited and creating the conditions to scale the market for ADR and for industry to invest more in technological development. 📈 7️⃣ Not reinventing the wheel - Member States have solutions for guidelines for ADR that COPUOS can review and expand on in line with LTS Guideline D.2 'Investigate and consider new measures to manage the space debris population in the long-term.' 🌌 8️⃣ UNOOSA is taking a pragmatic and holistic approach to advancing space sustainability using all avenues available. Through COPUOS to develop new guidelines and mechanisms for coordination, through capacity-building, and delivering services to nations that support implementation of what has already been agreed and have shared political will behind it. 🤝 #COPUOS2024
