LAC Copernicus Academy

Led by RedCLARA in the framework of the BELLA II Project, Copernicus LAC Academy is a human network that:

  • Enhances capacity building and knowledge management of thematic areas in Earth observation.

  • It enables collaboration between the different actors of the digital ecosystem (universities, research centres, private organisations, government) in Latin America, the Caribbean, and Europe.

  • It promotes training researchers, scientists, professionals, and entrepreneurs with the right skills to take advantage of the full potential of Copernicus data and information services.

Objectives

  1. Capacity building and knowledge management to enable the adoption of Copernicus data in new sectors: academic, governmental, and private.

  2. Encourage the development of interdisciplinary training programmes and the promotion of new competencies.

  3. Articulate efforts between academia, government, business, and citizens to provide solutions through Copernicus to problems related to climate change, disasters, water, and emergencies.

  4. Make visible successful experiences of implementing the skills and knowledge developed and acquired with Copernicus Academy to solve the region's needs.
