OECD / IFP Meeting to explore the role of space technologies in food security, on November 6th 2009
02-nov.-2009
The meeting will regroup experts from different organisations and industries to discuss trends and challenges in global food supplies, and examine the potential role of selected space applications. These space applications increasingly include remote sensing (e.g. imagery for agriculture monitoring) but also satellite communications and navigation (e.g. use of GPS supporting fisheries and sea transport).

Factors shaping international migration flows are complex and hard to predict. This publication explores the social, economic and environmental forces that may attract migrants to the OECD and those that may persuade migrants to emigrate or to stay. By analysing pull and push factors and constructing migration scenarios, this volume endeavors to cast light on key questions. Which factors will be major determinants of migration flows? Which OECD countries will look attractive for migrants? What kind of migration-related issues will policy makers likely be facing as 2030 approaches?

Second meeting the IAF Technical Committee on the space economy (17 March 2009)
In early 2008, the International Astronautical Federation (IAF) asked the OECD/IFP to chair a new IAF Technical Committee, focusing on the economic aspects of space activities. After receiving positive feedbacks from its Space Forum members, the IFP accepted the invitation. The Committee assembles for the first time economists and other actors active in the economic analysis of the space sector (e.g. strategy departments) to allow international discussions on measurement issues (size of sector, impacts). The second meeting took place in Paris, in March 2009. Read the summary of discussions .
