The Dark Matter Day is a worldwide event aiming to explain to the public about the unseen part of the Universe. Lawphysics also wants to contribute to such event. We propose an activity with physicists and astrophysicists based in Latin America, in which, we discuss the role of the region in the Dark Matter quest.
