N2 - In this review article, a broad overview of multiple terahertz- and mm-wave-related activities in Latin America is presented. Latin America houses two of the largest radiotelescopes in the world, a synchrotron terahertz beam line, and multiple activities related to sources, detectors, and instrumentation are underway throughout the region. Furthermore, we describe applications of terahertz spectroscopy and imaging in materials inspection, biomedical, industrial, agronomical, and cultural heritage fields, among others. While we try to include a diverse collection of topics and research groups, this review is not exhaustive, and there are additional activities that we could not include.
