Webinar: Launch of the BELLA II Blockchain Testbed

On Monday, September 1, at 16:00 GMT, the BELLA II project—led by RedCLARA and co-funded by the European Union—together with LACNet, will hold the virtual launch of the Blockchain Testbed. This secure, regulated, and accessible infrastructure will enable universities, research centers, startups, and National Research and Education Networks (NRENs) across Latin America and the Caribbean to test, validate, scale, and deploy innovative solutions under real-world conditions, with controlled costs and specialized technical support.


How can data be transformed into action to address climate change and environmental challenges? This question guided RedCLARA’s presentation at AmeriGEO Week 2025, held in Bogotá, Colombia, from August 11 to 15. In the workshop “Data-Driven Environmental Intelligence: The Strategic Role of RedCLARA, Academic Networks, and Copernicus Use Cases,” participants learned how the region’s academic networks (RNIES) turn information into real solutions that improve research, environmental management, and decision-making, showing how important it is for different groups in the digital ecosystem to work together.
