The mission of the European Space Policy Institute (ESPI) is to
provide decision-makers with an independent view and analysis on mid-
to longterm issues relevant to the use of space.
Through its activities, ESPI contributes to facilitate the
decision-making process, increases awareness on space technologies and
applications with the user communities, opinion leaders and the public
at large, and supports students and researchers in their space-related
work.
To fulfil these objectives, the Institute supports a network of experts
and centres of excellence working with ESPI in-house analysts.
