Help Shape the Future of the UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal

The UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal is your one-stop platform for resources on space-based disaster risk management. It provides:

•    Recommended practices and step-by-step methodologies
•    Training materials and tutorials
•    Case studies and user stories from real-world applications
•    News and updates on UN-SPIDER activities, events, and global developments
Since its last major review in 2012, the Portal has evolved significantly. Now, we want to hear from you.
We invite you to take part in the 2025 evaluation of the UN-SPIDER Knowledge Portal!
