Space weather comprises a set of hazards that threaten life and human activities including electric power, satellite communications and aviation.
According to a survey in the aviation field, Space weather is still unkown by many african countries and the means to face it is still nearly unavailble.
However, in the african continent space weather hazards is likely to occur like in any part of the world.
Therefore decisions have to be made and concrete actions to be taken to tackle this situation as soon as possible.
Among the wide range of solutions that can be suggested, what seems the most urgent can be expressed by this credo "Training is the key".
We call for partnerships, training programms, experience sharing and a global collaboration so that no continent be left behind.
