Current Projects

• EO CONNECTExternal link
  The project "EO CONNECT" works towards coordinated capacity development in Earth observation education (supported by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research - Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung), advancing the Earth Observation Training, Education, and Capacity Development Network - EOTEC DevNetExternal link
• EO CollegeExternal link
  The project "EO College 2026," supported by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Klimaschutz), aims to enhance learning platforms, explore new educational methods, and expand international collaboration in Earth observation education.
• SpaceSUITEExternal link
  The SpaceSUITE project, funded by Erasmus+, aims to bridge the skills gap in the space downstream sector by developing innovative education and training resources. Grounded in the SPACE4GEOExternal link Large-scale Skills Partnership, it builds on the success of the EO4GEO initiative to empower the professionals in the EU space sector through new curricula, training programs, and enhanced collaboration within the downstream space ecosystem.
