The latest NEREUS-Position Paper: “Recommendations on adding a regional dimension to the European Space Strategy”
NEREUS, Network of European Regions Using Space Technologies, is an initiative by regions from all over Europe, which share as Full Members its governance. Emphasis is placed on the use of space technologies. The network aims to explore the benefits of space technologies for Regions and their citizens and to spread their applications.
NEREUS is a strong voice for the regional dimension of European Space Policy and programs as well as end-user needs.
Stressing the regional dimension of a new strategic approach, the latest NEREUS-Position Paper: “Recommendations on adding a regional dimension to the European Space Strategy”, has been compiled as an interregional effort based on a broad consultation process across member regions. As a next step we are promoting it at EU-level, in particular towards the European Commission (EC) and the European Parliament (EP), in order to present the paper and highlight the regional perspective.
NEREUS participated also in meetings with representatives of the EP to explain the rationale of a closer involvement of regions.
