About the Conference
The Brijuni Conference is an international forum that unites leading scientists, thinkers, and decision-makers to discuss humanity’s next great frontier – space.
Set on the tranquil Brijuni Islands, a historic symbol of peace and dialogue, the conference explores how advances in space exploration, artificial intelligence,
and biotechnology are reshaping our understanding of life, ethics, and the future of civilization.

Main Themes
• The New Space Age: Science and technology transforming humanity’s reach beyond Earth
• Ethics and Responsibility: Defining moral frameworks for interplanetary exploration
• Life Beyond Earth: Astrobiology, exoplanets, and the search for habitable worlds
• Technology for Humanity: Using innovation to ensure space benefits for all humankind
• Global Cooperation: The role of science diplomacy in shaping a shared cosmic future

Key Objectives
• Encourage dialogue between scientists, philosophers, and policymakers on the ethical and technological frontiers of space.
• Foster collaboration across disciplines to ensure that advances in space exploration promote peace, sustainability, and global progress.
• Inspire new generations to view space as a shared human destiny — not a competition, but a common quest.

Participants
Leaders in space science, technology and artificial intelligence, as well as representatives of international institutions, research centers, and private space initiatives.
