  🚀 Just back from Milan after a busy and dynamic week, under the motto Responsible Space for Sustainability at IAC2024! 🌍 Last week, I represented EUSPA - EU Agency for the Space Programme at several key international gatherings. The International Astronautical Congress (IAC 2024) and the Ministers and Members of Parliament (MMoP) Meeting provided exceptional platforms to discuss the indispensable role of space in addressing global challenges such as climate change, disaster management, and sustainable development. At the UN-IAF Workshop, I had the opportunity to participate in vital discussions around capacity building and raising awareness for space technologies as a game-changer for development. Engaging with stakeholders from across the globe reaffirmed that collaboration is crucial in advancing space sustainability and ensuring the benefits of space technologies reach all sectors of society. In addition to these events, I also held numerous productive meetings with stakeholders, discussing their interests in EUSPA's work and how we can continue to innovate and grow Europe's space capabilities. Thank you to all the distinguished colleagues and partners I had the chance to engage with this week. Together, we are making significant strides toward a sustainable and secure future in space!
