Help Shape the Future of the UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal
The UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal is your one-stop platform for resources on space-based disaster risk management. It provides: • Links and guidance on satellite data sources and applications • Recommended practices and step-by-step methodologies • Training materials and tutorials • Case studies and user stories from real-world applications • News and updates on UN-SPIDER activities, events, and global developments
Since its last major review in 2012, the Portal has evolved significantly. Now, we want to hear from you.

From the fourth to the eigth of November this year, the Comittee on Space Research (COSPAR) will hold its fourth Symposium in Herzliya, Israel, covering the topic of small satellites for sustainable science and development.
The program will include invited lectures, oral and poster presentations, which will deal with a wide spectrum of topics in all disciplines related to the meeting topics. The symposium gathers a few hundred participants, and are focused on specific topics.
COSPAR was established by ICSU, now the International Science Council (ISC), in 1958. Among COSPAR's objectives are the promotion of scientific research in space on an international level, with emphasis on the free exchange of results, information, and opinions, and providing a forum, open to all scientists, for the discussion of problems that may affect space research. These objectives are achieved through the organization of symposia, publication, and other means.
