ICFAI Law School is organising a three-day international conference on Space Maneuvers: The Future Perplexities from October 14 to 16, 2022 in hybrid mode.

About the Organization 

The ICFAI Law School (ICFAI LAW SCHOOL) is a significant segment of the IFHE and recognized by Bar Council of India and accredited with A++ by the NAAC in 2022.

About the Global Network Against Weapons and Nuclear Power in Space

The Global Network was created in 1992 to build a global consciousness and active constituency to protect space from escalating debris in orbit, militarization and weaponization, the extension of nuclear power into outer space, and concerns about ozone depletion due to mounting launches. Since the inception of the space race, the arms race has continually moved into space.

For years, the U.S. Space Command, as stated in its 1997 publication ‘Vision for 2020’, has expressed intentions “to control space…dominate space…and deny other nations access to space.” It is crucial that the movement to stop this new round in the arms race moves quickly ahead.

About the Conference 

The main objective of this Conference is to utilize this platform to discuss the contemporary issues and challenges in outer space pertinent to warfare with an analysis based on legal, political, economic as well as scientific aspects in order to ensure peace and security in the international sphere.

Taking note of the existing warfare in various parts of the world, ICFAI is bringing together researchers, students, academicians, lawyers and professionals from the various legal and scientific fields to share their expertise, experience and wisdom, enabling them to provide insights in their respective fields yielding maximum discussion of conference topic under both legal and technical fronts.

We are looking forward to maximum participation, thorough research and a refined write-up. After thorough review, the best articles will be out for publication as a book with ISBN reference.

The conference is set to be hosted at Hyderabad, within the premisis of  IFHE (ICFAI Foundation of higher education).
