abstract = "Important research areas, with national and international
initiatives to implement instruments and develop science related
to space wether in Latin America, have been a great experience for
developing knowledge in the region. In the recent past,
solar-terrestrial physics has devoted itself especially to pure
science and, with ICAO / WMO, its training for {"}next-generation
of environmental services, also following Best Practices provided
by WMO partners within the aviation sector or among other UN and
ISES discussions groups. We will present a brief report on Latin
America's efforts and cooperation on space weather services. Some
services such as EMBRACE (Brazil), SCIESMEX (Mexico), LAMP and
MAGGIA Laboratory to the Space Weather (Argentina) and Space
Climate Laboratory (Chile) have already started providing
prediction, user watches, alerts and indices for alerts, as well
as data distribution. New missions in satellites such as SPORT and
COSMIC 2 together with ground instruments being exchanged is
fostering the already existent cooperations. Many actions have
recently been taken to promote Latin Americas timeframe by these
centres in training, data exchange, expertise, and instruments by
signing cooperation agreements. There is now a plan to make an
alliance of these four members to strengthen services for the
region. We aim to join efforts to develop a training plan by
mapping skills and knowledge that should be addressed within the
potential competencies defined for space weather related to
operational services within our programs. This joint effort should
also benefit from their specialization in best practices for
face-to-face and online training, including learning strategies
and assessment and use of training resources.",
