| dc.description | This article describes a recent and very fruitful IEEE MTT-S initiative in Latin America focusing on Costa Rica. Envisaged by the Membership and Geographical Activities (MGA) Committee of the MTT-S Administrative Committee (AdCom), this initiative, which was implemented by the end of 2022, aimed at developing MTT-S membership, volunteer base, and increased engagement in MTT-S activities in Region 9 of IEEE, especially focusing on Costa Rica. The delegation consisting of the MTT-S MGA Chair, Goutam Chattopadhyay, and the MTT-S Region 9 Coordinator, José Rayas-Sánchez, visited San Jose, Costa Rica. The 2022 MTT-S President, Rashaunda Henderson, was to accompany the delegation but had to drop out at the last moment due to some unavoidable circumstances. The delegation carried MTT-S President’s message to the microwave community in Costa Rica. This article presents the rationale and goals of the MTT-S delegation, the planning for the initiative, the agenda and activities, and the outcomes achieved. Several months after its implementation, the results obtained indicate that the initiative was very successful, confirming it as an effective strategy to promote RF and microwave-related technical activities and revitalize communities in similar emerging regions of the world. | es_MX |
