The Interstellar Foundation is thrilled to announce its collaboration with UNESCO IESALC for a landmark side event at the 2024 Summit of the Future. Titled "Our Collective Humanity and Pluralism: Multistakeholder Support for Right to Higher Education", this event will bring together global leaders, educators, youth representatives, and space industry professionals to explore the pivotal role of higher education and space exploration in shaping our collective future.

Date

September 21, 2024 - 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM

Location

Doha Conference Room, UNOSSC, and online via Zoom

This hybrid event will feature high-level discussions on three main themes:

  1. Earth vs. Space: What is collective humanity and pluralism?
  2. How can space education empower youth in understanding partnership and collaboration?
  3. Youth-led initiatives and the role of higher education in collective humanity and pluralism

The Interstellar Foundation's founder, Nick Searra, will moderate the event, facilitating dialogue between diverse stakeholders, including representatives from marginalized communities, academia, government, the private sector, UN agencies, and civil society organizations.

A highlight of the event will be the launch of a joint UNESCO-Interstellar Foundation initiative aimed at integrating space education into global youth curricula. This groundbreaking program seeks to inspire the next generation of space explorers and innovators while promoting global collaboration and understanding.

This event represents a unique opportunity to bridge the gap between space exploration, education, and global cooperation, by bringing together such a diverse group of stakeholders, we hope to inspire new partnerships and initiatives that will shape the future of humanity both on Earth and beyond.
