DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Michele Zema (International Union of Crystallography
 )\nWe describe an initiative funded by a 3-year\, 300K-Euro grant from the
  International Science Council (ISC) to the International Union of Pure an
 d Applied Physics (IUPAP) and International Union of Crystallography (IUCr
 ) in collaboration with over 30 partner organizations that include 16 adva
 nced light sources to enhance the utilization of advanced light sources an
 d crystallography in six targeted regions of the world\, namely Africa\, t
 he Caribbean\, Mexico\, Southeast Asia\, Middle East and the Pacific.  LAA
 AMP’s programs include the development of a Strategic Plan for each regi
 on\; a Colloquium program that sends experienced light source and crystall
 ography users to those regions\; establishment of crystallography training
  schools\; design and distribution of a Brochure that describes advanced l
 ight sources and crystallography for government officials and the public\;
  2-month Faculty-Student (FAST) Team training visits to advanced light sou
 rces\; and a sample mail-in program for data acquisition at advanced light
  sources.  Finally\, we discuss the path forward for LAAAMP.\n\nhttps://ev
