This report draws on the expertise and reflects joint cooperation between the OECD Science and Technology Directorate, headed by Andy Wyckoff and the Public Governance Directorate headed by Marcos Bonturi.
The project has been overseen by an international Expert Group whose members were nominated by GSF and included participation by HLRF representatives (see Annex A for membership). This Group was ably chaired by Robin Grimes (UK) and Khotso Mokhele (South Africa) and met twice in person and also had interim virtual meetings via teleconference. The country survey was carried out by Julie Calkins. The Wilton Park workshop was facilitated by Julia Purcell. Eric Stern and Anne Bardsley prepared the space weather scenario for the workshop and the workshop summary report was written by Alessandro Allegra. Alessandro also took the lead in drafting the final project report, with support from Taro Matsubara and Carthage Smith in the OECD GSF Secretariat and Charles Baubion in the HLRF Secretariat. Liv Gaunt and Andrea Uhrhammer in the Public Governance Directorate provided editorial and production support. Additional in kind secretarial support was provided by the UK Government Office for Science and the Wilton Park workshop was generously supported by a consortium of UK governmental and academic sponsors.
