Where do we stand on using outer space peaceful purposes?

The "Civil Society and Outer Space Forum 2007" organized by the Vienna
CONGO office (Conference of Non-governmental Organizations in
Consultative Relationship with the United Nations) will be held 8 - 9
October 2007at UN/VIC, Vienna.

Forum's Objectives

Being held forty years after the Outer Space Treaty entered into force,
the Forum should provide as comprehensive an overview as possible of the
current situation, pertaining to the use of outer space, in particular
those applications responding to a large variety of societal needs.

The Forum will grant members of the civil society community an
opportunity to acquaint themselves with, and assess their potential
contribution to, the application of space technology in selected fields
of the peaceful use of outer space and security and conduct of space
activities.

On the basis of those considerations, the Forum will formulate
recommendations pertaining to increasing general awareness of the
growing beneficial use of space technology and its contribution to
socio-economic development, as well as to safeguarding sustainable space
security.
