The 1st EELA (E-Infrastructure Shared between Europe and Latin America) conference will be held at the Technical University Federico Santa Maria, Santiago city, capital of Chile. The Conference will centre on four thematic areas addressed in the different sessions: Collaboration with other Grid Projects, Status of EELA Activities, Grid Communities and Applications, Status of RedCLARA and perspectives for the future.

The 5th EELA Tutorial for Grid Users will take place after the Conference, on 6-7 September 2006, in conjunction with the 1st national e-Science Congress (organised by REUNA - National University Network, Chile).

These two events will bring together professionals involved in EELA, reach out to communities of researchers operating in the region and bring them into contact with current users of its e-Infrastructure. New communities and their respective countries will be able to benefit from Grid technology, thus helping to bridge the digital divide.
