Latin America connected with Europe - english information
South America; Europe
The ALICE (America Latina Interconectada Con Europa) project was set up in 2003 to develop the RedCLARA network, which provides IP research network infrastructure within the Latin American region and towards Europe. It was managed by DANTE, and was 80% funded by the European Commission. It had 4 European and 19 Latin American partners, including the Latin American research networking association CLARA. The ALICE project led to the creation of RedCLARA, the first regional Latin American research and education network, interconnecting 12 NRENs across Latin America and offering connectivity to Europe and other world regions. Owing to its success, the ALICE project was extended until 31 March 2008 from its original end date of May 2006. Since then the countries participating in CLARA have been responsible for the sustainability of the organisation and the regional Latin American infrastructure. Connectivity to Europe and to other world regions has been sustained in 2008 through cost-sharing between the respective partners.
