ESPI was tasked to prepare this report for the European Economic and Social Committee. The study (link) aims at understanding the links between space and civil society, and explaining how the latter is involved and consulted in EU space policy-making. The report presents the complex governance of European space activities and the different organisations involved in it. It also describes the general impact of the space sector on European economy and analyses specific EU policies in more depth (on green, digital and security) to assess to which extent they integrate the use of space solutions.
NEREUS has frequently been cited as a pivotal participant in endeavors related to user uptake within the space sector.
