 Dear Colleagues,

The UN-Affiliated Regional Centres for Space Science and Technology
Education were endorsed by the UN General Assembly in 1995 and are
responsible for providing post-graduate level training in 4 areas: Remote
Sensing and Geographic Information System, Satellite Communications,
Satellite Meteorology and Global Climate and Space and Atmospheric
Sciences. The Regional Centre for the Latin America and the Caribbean
Region will be begining in 2003 its first long-term training course at the
post graduate level by offering an 'International Course on Remote Sensing
and Geographic Information System', to be given at the Brazilian Campus.
The duration of the course is from March - December 2003. Deadline for
applications is 15 December 2002, and the intake of students will be
limited to 15. Funding support is available to successful applicants.

I would be grateful if you could forward this email to colleagues in the
Latin America and Caribean Region that might benefit from attending this
course.
