Peru has been chosen to host the Artemis Accords Workshop in the first half of 2026, becoming the first country in Latin America and the fourth worldwide to hold this high-level event.

The designation was confirmed during the third edition of the Artemis Accords Workshop, held in Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates) on May 21–22.

This event saw the participation of representatives from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Peruvian Space Agency (Conida), and senior officials from various countries.

With this designation, Peru reaffirms its position on the international space stage, playing an active role within the global community that fosters a sustainable future for the governance of outer space.

The event will also highlight the excellent level of space cooperation between Peru and the United States of America, as both countries prepare to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the establishment of their diplomatic relations in 2026.

Peru signed the Artemis Accords in May 2024, becoming the 41st signatory country.

To date, 55 nations have joined these non-binding principles, which set guidelines for transparent, responsible, and collaborative space exploration.

The Artemis Accords are a set of non-binding principles proposed in 2020 by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the U.S. Department of State, aimed at guiding the exploration and civil use of outer space, particularly on the Moon.

These principles include the peaceful use of space, transparency in space activities, the sharing of scientific data, mutual assistance in case of emergencies, the protection of historic sites and space resources, as well as cooperation and respect for international space law.
