Wider Economic Benefits from Satellite Earth Observation in Developing Countries
With the support of
This webinar describes the key findings and conclusions from the report “Global Development Assistance: Wider Economic Benefits from Satellite Earth Observation in Developing Countries,” published in November 2022. The impacts of satellite EO for sustainable development are well documented, but the wider economic benefits of EO to developing countries is less understood. Thus this report and webinar discuss how investment in EO supports developing countries making data-driven decisions, and the role of GDA to capitalize on the power of EO in international development assistance operations.
As part of the GDA Monitoring and Evaluation and Impact Assessment activity, the webinar was hosted by Caribou Space and Imperative Space on May 17, 2023. It featured David Taverner (Caribou Space), Farooq Sabri (Associate Director, London Economics), and Alex Chunet (ESA representative at the World Bank).
