The Space Policy Institute, in partnership with the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies, Monterey Institute of International Studies, and the Secure World Foundation hosted a January 24 workshop on 'The State of Space Security.' A diverse audience of approximately 150 persons heard a full day of presentations and discussions aimed at providing an overview of recent specific positive steps towards collective space security, defined as secure and sustainable access to and use of outer space in accordance with international laws and treaties, free from threat of disruption. Financial support for the workshops was provided by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, with additional contributions from the Secure World Foundation, the Ploughshares Fund, and Ball Aerospace.
