Science centres and museums can take advantage of the inherent wonder Space inspires in order to enhance their exhibitions and activities about sustainable development on Earth.

Explore how space science and technology contributes to the preservation of our planet and to delivering the United Nations' Agenda 2030, embodied by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Together with specialists from the European Space Agency and colleagues from the Ecsite Space Group, discuss how to take a more active role towards the implementation of the Tokyo Protocol signed during the Science Center World Summit in November 2017.

More about this session: After short, inspiring presentations, speakers will invite participants to join several smaller discussions organised around the conceptual and practical opportunities and challenges of including space topics in their exhibitions and activities. This session is organised by the European Space Agency – ESA – and the Ecsite Space Group, the Ecsite thematic group that aims to improve and extend communication about space science by helping science centres, space professionals and non-specialists to develop collaborative projects and events. The workshop is open to all, join!
