The Space Generation Advisory Council (SGAC) is a non-governmental organisation which brings the views from its members to, and works with: the United Nations, Space Agencies and other organisations. Members are students and young space professionals. We engage young people in space policy.
More broadly, the Space Generation identifies a large group of young (minded) volunteers who have an interest in space and an ambition to act. In fact, the Space Generation Network is "the biggest, global, space youth network". By working together, we can make a difference.
SGAC has obtained permanent observer status in the UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (COPUOS) and is a member of the International Astronautical Federation.
