The Artemis Accords: Past, Present, and Future

On October 13, 2020, representatives from eight countries announced the inaugural signing of the Artemis Accords, a multilateral agreement on several principles related to future space exploration activities on the Moon. Over the last two years, the number of signatories has risen to twenty-one, including several countries that have not historically had significant human spaceflight cooperation with the United States. The Accords have also renewed the international discussions over key space law issues, including use of space resources and coordinating activities on the Moon.

To discuss these and other issues related to the Artemis Accords, please join Secure World Foundation for a luncheon panel discussion on December 12, 2022, from 11:30 am – 2:00pm. The event will feature a fireside chat with NASA Deputy Administrator Pam Melroy and a panel discussion with representatives from the U.S. State Department and several Accords signatory nations.

The event will be hosted at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace at 1779 Massachusetts Ave, NW, Washington, DC. The event will be open to the media and recorded, with the video being posted to our website after the event.

Attendance is free, but all participants must register. For any questions, please contact Brian Weeden at bweeden@swfound.org.
