Abstract
This article discusses how
space S&T can be applied to
determine conflict trends such
as environmental and human
insecurity, report on human rights
abuses in inaccessible areas, and
track criminal activities such as
piracy off the Somali coast, and
how space S&T can be applied in
post-conflict reconstruction.
