Cosmos for Humanity

The NGO Cosmos for Humanity aims to raise awareness among the general public and economic actors about the sustainable development of space activities, while supporting innovative projects that address the issue of space pollution. 

Our mission is to promote the sustainable development of space activities in Europe by pursuing a double objective:

No3-purple_opt-min

To make the theme of space pollution concrete and accessible to as many people as possible: consumers, companies, political decision-makers.

No6-Purple_opt-min

Promote projects of European researchers and startups in the framework of partnerships, competitions and calls for projects. 

By committing to the sound management of space pollution, Cosmos for Humanity and the Cosmos Rangers are working to protect the environment and preserve our satellite capabilities, which contribute to the monitoring of 40 climate change factors as well as to the achievement of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Our vision

If the New Space has made it legitimate for private actors to pollute Space,
it has made it equally legitimate for them to preserve it
