This book provides detailed insights into how space and its applications are, and can be, used to support the development
of the full range and diversity of African societies, as encapsulated in the African Union's Agenda 2063. Like previous books
in the "Southern Space Studies" series, it focuses on the role of space in supporting the UN Sustainable Development Goals
in Africa, but it covers an even more extensive array of relevant and timely topics addressing all facets of African development.
It demonstrates that, while great achievements have been made in recent years in terms of economic and social development,
which has lifted many of Africa's people out of poverty, there is still much that needs to be done to fulfill the basic needs
of Africa's citizens and afford them the dignity they deserve: to this end space is already being employed in diverse fields
of human endeavor to serve Africa's goals for its future, but there is much room for further incorporation of space systems
and data. Providing a comprehensive overview of the role space is playing in achieving Africa's developmental aspirations,
the book is of great interest to both students and professionals in fields such as space studies, international relations,
governance, social and rural development, and many others.
