Overview

Gender equality has a transformative impact on everything from individuals to institutions and innovations in the space sector. Despite this, the space sector has many data gaps when it comes to gender equality, hampering our ability to know what to do, and how to do it, and impacting individuals’ experiences in the sector. Gender inequality in the sector has broader implications for talent retention, recruitment, and the sustainable uses of outer space. This study builds on the Phase 1 Landmark Study on Gender Equality in the Global Space Sector and the UNOOSA Space4Women Expert Meetings in the Republic of Korea, Canada, and Kenya. This report comprises two parts, launching the UNOOSA Phase 2 research into gender equality in the space sector. The first part of this report focuses on women’s experiences in the sector, while the second part provides information on gender representation in private space organizations and examines policies or interventions that advance gender equality. The purpose of both is to drive transparency, action, and progress towards equality and inclusion in humanity’s ambitions in space. Not only is this critical to the Space2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals but it is also a moral and strategic necessity.
