Between 27 of February and 3 of March 2023, an activity was held specifically for the contact points of CiberRed (the Ibero-American Network of Specialized Prosecutors in Cybercrime, which was established at the beginning of 2018 in Lisbon, Portugal, within the framework of the Ibero-American Association of Public Prosecution Services, with the aim of promoting and reinforcing the cooperation of the Ibero-American countries in investigations related to cybercrime).

This event was included within the framework of the activities scheduled for 2023 in the Plan of Transferencia, Intercambio y Gestión de Conocimiento para el Desarrollo de la Cooperación Española en América Latina y el Caribe - INTERCOONECTA - coordinated and promoted by the Spanish Agency for International Cooperation for Development (AECID). It was a training activity related to the fight against cybercrime that, at the request of AECID, was organized and directed by the Spanish Fiscalía General del Estado.
