The Space Variable astronomical Object Monitor (SVOM) is a Sino-French mission dedicated to the study of Gamma-Ray Bursts, and more generally to Time Domain Astrophysics. SVOM is composed by a multi wavelength space payload (gamma-rays, X-rays, and optical) coupled to dedicated ground based robotic telescopes, operating in the visible and NIR domain. SVOM will be launched in June 2024, and I will present the SVOM science objectifs, its payload as well as its data policy.
