Keep Space for Peace Week

In 1999 the United Nations General Assembly declared that October 4-10 every year would be designated as ‘World Space Week’ to “celebrate the contributions of space science and tchnology to the betterment of the human condition”.

The peace movement (and the GN in particular) has called for global actions and events during this week to ‘Keep Space for Peace’.

Each year the GN provides a poster for use to highlight the Week of Actions and posts a list of the actions organised by our members.

In 2019 there were 40 actions in 10 countries.
