The regional Technical Community organizations coordinated a meeting with the eLAC-ECLAC Working Groups on December 12 and 13 at Casa de Internet for Latin America and the Caribbean. The event in Montevideo, Uruguay brought together representatives from LACNIC, ICANN, the Internet Society, RedClara and LACTLD with government, private sector and academia stakeholders that are currently members of the eLAC-ECLAC Working Groups on digital economy and meaningful connectivity.

The Co-Afina 2023 hackathon was promoted by the organizing alliance of the LA-CoNGA physics project with Creative Commons Venezuela, RedClara and the Academic Network of Ecuador (CEDIA), and sponsored by the ICTP Institute and its Physics Without Frontiers (PWF) program, the Software Sustainability Institute (SSI) and the artificial intelligence company INAIT SA.

During the TICAL 2023 conference organized by RedCLARA, the director of the Mexican RNIE, Dr. Moisés Torres Martínez, signed an agreement establishing the rules of participation for the use of the MISP (Malware Information Sharing Platform) instance of the European Organisation for Nuclear Research, known by its acronym CERN.

Within the framework of the BELLA II project, RedCLARA calls on the governments of Latin America and the Caribbean, the EU delegations in this same region, telecommunications and related companies, and all interested parties in the public and private sectors, to participate in this RFI that seeks to determine potential existing and/or planned connectivity infrastructure projects that could have synergies with the objectives of BELLA II.
