Earth to Space Program

"I had the pleasure of coordinating the International exchange program for the Earth to Space Festival curated by Alicia Adams and Gilda Almeida. They are experts at connecting students from all different continents with artists and scientists on exciting and meaningful programs.

As a NASA Education Specialist, I coordinated the engagement of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center and students from classrooms in the United Kingdom, Japan, Senegal, and the United States. The impact was extraordinary. Initiatives like these must be applauded and supported. They immensely help the young generation of thinkers, artists, scientists, creators, leaders and communities feel part of the future of exploration, imagination, a more sustainable world, and the preservation of humanity."

“EARTH to SPACE offered a compelling example of how science, technology, culture and international cooperation can come together to inspire new ways of thinking about our future. Monaco was proud to help open the festival, with a special message from H.S.H. Prince Albert II, and to contribute to conversations exploring the links between space innovation and sustainability on Earth. From ‘Monaco’s Leap to the Stars’ to the remarkable Astrolab FLEX lunar rover, the festival made complex ideas tangible and accessible to a broad public. Most importantly, it demonstrated how exploration and technological innovation beyond our planet can also generate new ideas and solutions for life on Earth — and how international collaboration can help make that possible.”
