With the African Space Agency (AfSA) now established and the European Space Agency advancing its strategic autonomy, both continents face a critical moment to deepen cooperation. This session explores concrete cooperation possibilities: from joint Earth observation for climate monitoring and disaster management, to satellite technologies for rural connectivity, and shared training programs with innovation incubators. How can Africa and Europe move beyond technology adoption to jointly shape the global space economy? Join us to explore actionable strategies for high-impact, mutually beneficial partnerships that will define the future of space exploration and technology.
