The GRSS Argentine Chapter and the Gulich Institute at the Comisión Nacional de Actividades Espaciales (CO-NAE)?University of Córdoba organized the school, which was supported by the Centro Latinoamericano de For-mación Interdisciplinaria (CELFI). The event was developed following the framework of the annual meetings held by the GRSS local Chapter and the Gulich Institute. The organizing committee obtained funding to support 40 Latin American participants and seven international experts. The call for presentations was published in March 2018, and we had more than 200 applications. On the basis of capacity, we opened the school with 97 participants: 34 from across Latin America and 63 from different regions of Argentina (Figure 1).
