Presentation abstract
Dr. Wood will present the work of the Space Enabled Research Group at the MIT Media Lab whose mission is to advance justice in Earth’s complex systems using designs enabled by space.
The Group's message is that six types of space technology are supporting societal needs, as defined by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDG). These six technologies include:
-
satellite earth observation
-
satellite communication
-
satellite positioning
-
microgravity research
-
technology transfer
-
infrastructure related to space research and education.
While much good work has been done, barriers remain that limit the application of space technology as a tool for sustainable development. The Space Enabled Research Group works to increase the opportunities to apply space technology in support of the UNSDG and to support space sustainability.
Dr. Wood will describe six methods:
-
design thinking
-
art
-
social science
-
complex systems
-
satellite engineering and data science.
The Space Enabled Research Group collaborates with development leaders who represent multilateral organizations, national and local governments, non-profits and entrepreneurial firms to identify opportunities to apply space technology in their work. They strive to enable a more just future in which every community can easily and affordably apply space technology.
The work toward their mission covers three themes:
1) Research to apply existing space technology to support the UNSDG;
2) Research to design space systems that are accessible and sustainable;
3) Research to study the relationship between technology design and justice.
The presentation will give examples of research projects within each of these themes.
Prof. Danielle Wood
Director of the Space Enabled Research Group
Assistant Professor of Media Arts & Sciences and Aeronautics & Astronautics
