摘要

The Southern Hemisphere States, while possessing certain competitive advantages, also suffer from severesocio-economic drawbacks. We have identified current and future needs in the Southern Hemisphere from apolitical, geographical, and social perspective, with particular reference to the United Nations MillenniumDevelopment Goals. For the purposes of this paper, the Southern Hemisphere is defined to include all Stateswith territory below the Tropic of Cancer, so that equatorial States which are politically or geographicallyaligned with the Southern Hemisphere are included. We have highlighted the competitive advantages of theSouthern Hemisphere nations, such as strategic geographic location, low population density, vast expanses ofvacant land, and cooperation with regional partners. We have proposed recommendations to develop theseadvantages into valuable contributions to their collective space capability. These recommendations revolvearound using space technology in a national and international context and optimizing the existing capabilities tofurther fields of space research and applications. From the unique perspective of the Southern hemisphere, wehave attempted to review three goals that would address the socio-economic requirements followed byimplementations for each goal, the technology involved, legal and policy implications, financial aspects, and theindirect benefits have been elaborated. First, with a view to realize the distinctive Southern Hemispheregeographical assets for space activities and applications, we have established that the international recognitionof specific advancements and specialty information within Southern Hemisphere States is an imperative. Wehave also suggested development of a Regional Space Industry Association to coordinate awareness of spacerelated needs and advancements of the Southern Hemisphere. Second, we have addressed the issue of spacebasedapplications for disaster warning and mitigation, and food and water security by proposing a collaborativeapproach for the processing and dissemination of earth observation (EO) data, coupled with the development ofexpertise and infrastructure to ensure optimal use of available EO and GIS solutions. Finally, spacetelecommunication capabilities with a particular reference to the UN Millennium Development Goals have alsobeen addressed through the delivery of tele-health and tele-education to rural areas using satellite technology.
