1. JUSTIFICATION:
The demand for geography training in Latin America is increasing, this is reflected when is viewed as the place where the great civilizing native societies of our continent as the Aztec, Maya and Inca ordered his territory and also, archaic societies from Rio Grande to Patagonia that territorialized in space - time their wild and extreme physical geography. The non-fusion between the Indo European and European plow generated after the conquest and colonization a fracture in the New Territories organized by different European colonizers the search for gold and wealth was the lever that was needed to reach areas inhospitable, the need for greatness, generated the discover of American Indian societies that have their own rules, customs and land management that was disrupted a by the European man conquering and civilizing at their way. In the XIX century began to seek more trade routes, as well as more wealth in the soil of Spanish America had just gained its independence, therefore, begin to create the geographical societies of the new American republics as a resemblance of London, Paris, Munich, Italian and Spanish. The Commission for Latin American Studies, aims to study Latin America in space and time, socio-spatial transformations that have been taking place in our continent, from a critical perspective with endogenous relationships (intra - continental) and exogenous to the other continents or sub-continents (North America and Europe). Crisis management of socio territorial problems generated by socio-historicalenvironmental that exist in our space and time called Latin America are the events that have given our interest in power relations between the political organization of society and geographical space at different scales in Latin America. The Latin American Geography is no stranger to all world events because in the past, our new states - nation to independence began to inventory their natural resources, to organize their territories according to their changing needs, for that Geography of the time with profile a cartographic was the main weapon of domination as it was in the centuries of the colony on indigenous peoples and minorities as well as racial and religious transformations through which culture is produced and everyday cultural practices of individuals and communities, as expressed in institutions, subjectivities and social movements. The baselines of the project with respect to the relationship with regional or global organizations that deal with education, economy and state policies, regional and global start with the UN system (CEPA, UNU, UNEP, UNDP, UNESCO and others). The relationship would be with the ISSC (International Council of Social Sciences) body attached to UNESCO, would look for both groups are active in working together in the future as events, research, it also seeks a relationship with another agency as FLACSO (Latin American Faculty of Social Sciences) What is a Latin American think tank, CLACSO (Latin American Social Sciences Council) that a network of research centers in Latin America, and Latin Americanists from other latitudes. We consider extremely important the relationship with the OEA (Organization of American States), specifically

its executive body of geographical research which is the American Institute of Geography and History (IPGH), with the commission of Geography. The Meeting of Latin American Geographers (EGAL) is the most Latin American event, is the result of the expectation that American geographers have to achieve a scientific output from Latin America to the world, so every two years since 1987, are made EGAL, the first one in guas de So Pedro, organized by the Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP) into the state of So Paulo, Brazil. Attempts have followed every 2 years in Uruguay (Montevideo, 1989), Mexico (Toluca, 1991), Venezuela (Merida, 1993), Cuba (Havana, 1995) Puerto Rico (San Juan, 1997), Argentina (Buenos Aires , 1999), Chile (Santiago, 2001), Mexico (Merida, 2003), Brazil (So Paulo, 2005), Colombia (Bogota, 2007), Uruguay (Montevideo, 2009), Costa Rica (San Jos, 2011), 2013 will be held in Lima, Peru EGAL XIV, which IGU is called to be principal sponsor. There are other events that are antecedents that continue to be important because of its importance within geography, as Latin American Meetings of Geography Students (ELEG) Georaizal (Network of Latin America Geographers Root), International Meetings Humboldt (Humboldt Red).

2. MISSION:
To constitute a social network producing Latin American Geographical research with a critical view from academia and from practice, created from everyday life and seek to explore the rich ontology of subject knowledge in Latin American geopolitics of knowledge in the space - time of world - system . The commission of Latin American Studies will be a platform for professionals in the Latin American geography to get contributions from high theoretical and methodological level of the various geographies in the service of our people. The multilateral Latin American knowledge creation as FLACSO (Latin American Faculty of Social Sciences), CLACSO (Latin American Council of Social Sciences), Institute of Geography and History (IPGH), with the commission of Geography. Will be our allies to make the "Patria Grande" (Latin America), find justice in the different spatial scales, to recognize a labor of timely reinterpretation of codes deterritorialized globalization from regional agencies and local government, social movements with a sense of geographical sovereignty.

3. OBJECTIVES: GENERAL:
Establish a Latin American organization of geography for work and discussions on the subject of study "Latin America", which achieves articulate students, professionals and geography teachers for their coexistence and integration through praxis of topics of interest to the Latin American people, encourage commitment to society by promoting geographical research from epistemic vision criticized but adapting it to the Latin American reality achieving fertilization stimulating critical thinking and reflective with a commitment to break with hegemonic myths and preconceptions of Latin American social knowledge of the subject. 4

SPECIFIC:
a) To promote interdisciplinary relationships between American geographers with the formation of virtual knowledge networks, such as building a website. b) To publish a journal of Latin American geography with a special dossier on the problem or situation in Latin America, and a monthly online newsletter. c) Promote the EGAL XIV 2013 (Meeting of Latin American Geographers) in Lima, from now on and organize IGU Regional Conferences and the International Geographical Congress (ICG) in 2020. d) Create lines or lines of research with responsibility and autonomy to work with other networks such as GEORAYZAL, Humboldt, and EGAL. e) Seek for agreements with the American Institute of Geography and History (IPGH), FLACSO (Latin American Faculty of Social Sciences), CLACSO (Latin American Council of Science), Post-Associao de Pesquisa em Graduao and Geography (ANPEGE) of Brazil, and other Pan and regional organizations. f) To undertake a Graduate Diploma in Geographic Latin American Studies with strategic partners such as universities and institutions of education. g) Encourage the creation of the career of geography in undergraduate and graduate levels, especially countries that have not yet our specialty. h) To integrate geography with other disciplines in the epistemological debate that seeks to realize their true role and find a Latin American Integration Geographical Thought making the Latin American subject as object of study in human and physical geography of our region.
