Living Planet Symposium 2025 : Watch live

One of the biggest Earth observation conferences in the world will take place next week in Vienna. You can watch streamed plenary discussions and presentations each day on ESA Web TV.

ESA’s Living Planet Symposium will be held in the Austrian capital from 23 to 27 June.

The themes for the week are summarised in the symposium’s strapline “from observation to climate action and sustainability for Earth”. There will be discussions on how we can work together in the fields of Earth science and with the Earth observation industry to promote effective climate action to address the environmental crisis, with presentations also on new trends in Earth observation.

As many as 6000 participants are expected from up to 119 countries, including at least 800 members of the scientific community.

The event is organised with the support of the Austrian Research Promotion Agency and Austria’s Federal Ministry of Climate Action, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology. It will be held at the Austria Centre Vienna.
