The peaceful, safe and sustainable development of the Moon requires law and policy as much as it needs technology and engineering.
We employ our unique expertise, network, and approach,
for the benefit of the community and individual actors
-
Open Resources
Through our open resources we help the space community reaching a common understanding of policy priorities and trends for peaceful, safe, and sustainable lunar development.
-
Tailored Products
Through our tailor-made products we advise and educate lunar players and emerging actors on the legal and policy implications of planned and ongoing lunar activities.
-
Policy Decalogue
Through our Policy Decalogue, we facilitate policymakers and operators in designing and implementing policies and standards for peace, safety, and sustainability on the Moon.

Lunar Policy Priorities Report
Based upon a consultative process involving 40 stakeholders from the global space community, the Lunar Policy Priorities Report identifies ten priority areas to be addressed for the safe and sustainable development of the Moon.
2024 Lunar Policy Snapshot
Based upon an expert assessment of the lunar policy environment and wide consultations with the LPP network, the 2024 Lunar Policy Snapshot identifies key lunar-related developments occurred in the year 2024,
presenting stakeholder views and major policy implications.
On December 2nd, 2024, LPP unveiled the Snapshot at a dedicated event
on Lunar Policy Trends & Futures hosted on the margins of the 2024 UN World Space Forum in Bonn, with the participation of over 50 stakeholders representing the global space community.
On November 11th, 2023, the LPP officially unveiled the Lunar Policy Priorities Report at the Palais Brongniart in Paris through
a dedicated panel discussion on lunar policy at the occasion of the 6th Paris Peace Forum (PPF).

Lunar Policy Briefs
Lunar activities are testing the system of space law to its limits. Our policy briefs are expert assessments developed at the request of a client to meet a variety of legal and policy needs.
For example, we can examine a specific lunar mission to identify potential legal and policy issues, outline their implications for the success of the mission, and develop possible solutions.
We can also investigate specific legal and policy topics to help stakeholders prepare for their international engagements.
Lunar Policy Workshops
Lunar policy cannot be learned in a day, but a workshop can help. Our policy workshops are intimate events designed to meet the needs of a client preferring a hands-on approach to lunar policy.
Leveraging our network, we can convene international experts to train personnel, simulate scenarios, develop policy positions, strategise engagements, brainstorm ideas, and more.
Our policy workshops can be organized in person or online depending on the preferences and resources of our clients.
Reputational
Due Diligence
Our Reputational Due Diligence (RDD) service provides comprehensive assessments of stakeholders, partners, and possible collaborators in the rapidly evolving lunar sector, specifically tailored to meet the needs of the lunar sector, such as:
Political exposure
Potential risks from third-party relationships
Navigating changing regulations
Regulatory Compliance
Ethical Alignment
Reputational Issues
Tabletop Exercises
and Crisis Simulations
Utilising lunar-focused tabletop exercises or crisis simulation allows your organisation to develop and test strategies and mitigation plans through near-real-world simulations of lunar scenarios, possible crises and related event chains.
Through modelling geopolitical changes or regulatory shifts you can gain a deep understanding of how these will affect your interests, and how you can react and influence them.
Depending on your preference, we can run a focused scenario facilitating strategic discussion, or develop intricate, multi-stage simulations that anticipate the unfolding developments of lunar governance and its consequences several steps into the future.
Building upon the common ground identified in the Lunar Policy Priorities Report,
the LPP is working with stakeholders from the global space community on a Lunar Policy Decalogue,
a set of ten deliverables enabling and accompanying the safe and sustainable development of the Moon.
