Register today for our Space Café “Law Breakfast with Steven Freeland” on 24 March 2022

Space Café “Law Breakfast with Steven Freeland” will analyse current space developments with a legal focus. It will, at the same time discuss and ‘demystify’ the law for everyone.

In our next Space Café “Law Breakfast with Steven Freeland”, Host Steven Freeland, Emeritus Professor of International Law at Western Sydney University, Sydney and Professorial Fellow at Bond University, Australia, and Co-Host Torsten Kriening, SpaceWatch.Global’s Publisher, welcome Irmgard Marboe and Olavo Bittencourt Neto at the wonderful and cosy Café in Brazil.

Over bagels, croissants, coffee and other treats, we will discuss many legal issues arising from everyday space activities, including the following:

  • How the themes of ‘cooperation’ and ‘humanity’ represent essential elements in the international regulation of the use and exploration of outer space
  • How cooperation in space activities involves all stakeholders in the global space sector, including the United Nations, all countries (whether actively space-faring or not), industry and every aspect of civil society
  • How cooperation is vital to preserve the stability, safety and sustainability of space for present and future generations and is necessary to find ways to address the really ‘big issues’ in space
  • The risks and dangers that flow from geopolitical tensions, disagreements and conflicts when it comes to cooperation in space

Irmgard and Olavo, both leading experts in space law, will also provide their ‘one word’ to describe the wonders of space/space law – a tradition for all guests at the Space Café Law Breakfasts, and help to demystify the sometimes complex and contradictory vested interests involved in space activities and industry.

We hope that you will enjoy this discussion and will join us on 24 March at 9.30 am CET. There are so many more issues to discuss. Please come along with your favourite breakfast treat and any questions that you might want us to analyse.

We really hope you will join us for breakfast! See you then!
