Side-event Workshops Call for Expression of Interest
You are cordially invited to the 14th Conference of the African Association of Remote Sensing of the Environment – AARSE2024. As you might be aware the AARSE 2024 Conference will take place from 21st October to 25th October, 2024 in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire. This 14th session will represent a major event in the long series of internationally recognized AARSE conferences. AARSE 2024 takes place at a strategic moment, when Africa faces major pressing issues such as climate change impact, water scarcity, energy shortage, environmental stresses, natural resource related conflicts and food crisis, which affect citizens, business, and the community at large. On all these challenges, Earth Observation can play a greater role in making up factual, precise, and updated information for better decision-making.
