The European Space Agency (ESA) Living Planet Symposium will be held in Milano, from 13^th to 17^th May 2019. The symposium focuses on how Earth Observation contributes to science and society and how disruptive technologies and actors are changing the traditional Earth Observation landscape.

Clearly, an active participation to this event is of great interest for students in Engineering, especially for those studying new technologies for the environment, with a particular focus on Earth Observation data management and analysis.

The Living Planet Action is planned in strict cooperation with the Organizing committee of Living Planet Symposium. Participants to this Action will act as 'symposium volunteers' for two days and a half by helping the organizing committee during the Symposium. In the remaining days they will have the opportunity to freely attend the scientific sessions. Both activities will be certified by Politecnico di Milano into the Diploma Supplement.
