   Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs ( UNOOSA) and the German
   Aerospace Center (DLR) and with the support from the International
   Strategy for Disaster Reduction - Platform for the Promotion of Early
   Warning (ISDR/PPEW) and the United Nations University - Institute for
   Environment and Human Security (UNU-EHS). The workshop will be held in
   Bonn , Germany , from 13  - 15 October 2008 in the UN Building in Bonn
   .
   We are attaching the second announcement of the workshop including the
   application form and we would be grateful if you could forward the
   announcement to colleagues that would benefit from participating.
   We are also planning the following meeting which is being organised
   back-to-back with the second international Bonn workshop : "5th UN-wide
   Meeting on the Use of Space Technologies for Emergency Response and
   Humanitarian Assistance" in Bonn , Germany , 16 to 17 October 2008.
   This 5th meeting will build upon the previous four meetings, which
   focused on the International Charter Space and Major Disasters,

   should build upon.
