How can we accelerate achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals through commercially led capacity-building partnerships with emerging spacefaring nations?
United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #17 (Partnerships for the Goals) is critical for emerging spacefaring nations to access the benefits of space to help combat the impacts of climate change and meet the rest of their SDGs by 2030. The commercial space sector, as well as established spacefaring nations and academia, have vital roles to play in helping these nations access space. In collaboration with the UN Office of Outer Space Affairs and Space Foundation, this project seeks to study the feasibility of commercially led capacity-building partnerships.
