Un Platform For Space-Based Information For Disaster Management And Emergency Response Un-Spider
In its resolution 61/110 of 14 December 2006 the United Nations General Assembly agreed to establish the "United Nations Platform for Space-based Information for Disaster Management and Emergency Response - UN-SPIDER" as a new United Nations programme, with the following mission statement:"Ensure that all countries and international and regional organizations have access to and develop the capacity to use all types of space-based information to support the full disaster management cycle". A number of initiatives in recent years have contributed in making space technologies available for humanitarian aid and emergency response. Yet, UN-SPIDER is the first to focus on the need to ensure access to and use of such technologies during all phases of the disaster management cycle, including the risk reduction phase which is crucial for reducing the losses of lives and property. The UN-SPIDER programme is achieving this by focusing on being a gateway to space information for disaster management support, by serving as a bridge to connect the disaster management, risk management and space communities and by being a facilitator of capacity-building and institutional strengthening, in particular for developing countries. UN-SPIDER is being implemented as an open network of providers of space-based solutions to support disaster management activities. Besides Vienna (where UNOOSA is located), the programme also has an office in Bonn, Germany as well as an office in Beijing, China.

Wassenaar Arrangement
The Wassenaar Arrangement on Export Controls for Conventional Arms and Dual-Use Goods and Technologies (WA) was established in order to contribute to regional and international security and stability by promoting transparency and greater responsibility in transfers of conventional arms and dual-use goods and technologies, thus preventing destabilising accumulations and preventing the acquisition of these items by terrorists. Participating States (PS) seek, through their national policies, to ensure that transfers of these items do not contribute to the development or enhancement of military capabilities which undermine these goals, and are not diverted to support such capabilities. PS apply export controls to all items set forth in the List of Dual-Use Goods and Technologies and the Munitions List, with the objective of preventing unauthorized transfers or re-transfers of those items. The Control Lists can be found here: In fulfilling the purposes of the Arrangement as described above, PS have, inter alia, agreed to a number of guidelines, elements and procedures as a basis for decision-making through the application of their own national legislation and policies. These can be found at wassenaar.org/best-practices/. Representatives of PS meet regularly in Vienna where the WA has established its headquarters and a small Secretariat. The Secretariat's role is to facilitate and support interaction between PS, and it supports the PS in the Arrangement's functioning by: • Hosting meetings of the WA bodies and supporting the respective Chairs • Facilitating information-exchange among PS including electronic communications via a dedicated network • Distributing and archiving WA documents • Managing WA programmes and resources • Maintaining the WA website • Contributing to WA outreach activities in Vienna and around the world The current Head of Secretariat is Ambassador György Molnár (Hungary).
