Join us in Seville for the third Zero Debris Week, where the Zero Debris community will come together to tackle one of the space sector’s most pressing challenges.

Engage with fellow experts and decision-makers as we explore the high-level obstacles facing the Zero Debris initiative and work collaboratively to identify practical solutions in the Zero Debris Technical Forum

The Zero Debris Week will consist of two professional events: the 3rd Zero Debris Future Symposium and a workshop of the Zero Debris Technical Forum. A number of social activities and opportunities to network will also be organised throughout the week.

Zero Debris Technical Sessions | September 9-11

Join us for a new series of technical sessions dedicated to advancing the Zero Debris initiative. Participants will review the outcomes of the mapping and prioritisation tasks for the Booklet and share pitches highlighting cutting-edge technologies. There will also be two focused working sessions: one on technical White Papers and another on the development of a shared database of technologies supporting the Zero Debris effort.

A dedicated training session on outreach and expanding the international reach of the ZD Booklet will help strengthen engagement across the community.

The Technical Sessions will conclude with B2B meetings, offering participants the opportunity to connect, exchange perspectives, and explore new collaborations.

Start time: 14:00 on 09/09/26
End time: 13:00 on 11/09/26

 

Limited Places Available 

We invite organizations to coordinate and send a limited number of representatives who can actively contribute to shaping the future of space sustainability. Your expertise and input are invaluable to achieving our zero debris goals by 2030.

In the case of over-subscription, ESA will strive to invite a diversity of organisations to participate in the ZD Week. ESA reserves the right to prioritise attendance based on previous involvement in the ZD Charter and the ZD Technical Booklet.
