Third U.S.-Vietnam Civil Space Dialogue

WASHINGTON, 26 March 2022, (TON): During her August 2021 visit to Vietnam, Vice President Kamala Harris affirmed the importance of U.S. and Vietnamese efforts to ensure space activities are conducted in a responsible and sustainable manner. 

As part of those joint efforts, U.S. and Vietnamese officials met virtually March 22-24 for the third U.S.-Vietnam Civil Space Dialogue.

The discussion focused on cooperation in space-based Earth observation.  Participants discussed the SERVIR-Mekong project, a partnership with USAID and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), which helps countries use satellite data to address challenges in food security, natural resource management, climate, air quality, and natural disasters.
