"Geografías de la esperanza" acción colectiva juvenil y educomunicación en el suroriente de Bogotá

Abstract

This research focuses on the socio-community spaces of the communication-education field. The objective was to understand the forms of youth collective action that are deployed through educommunication in the south-eastern territory of Bogota. So it was proposed to characterize them, to identify the educomunicative practices that underlie them and to question the meaning and meaning that young people have for collective action and education. It was developed with five (5) organizations of the territory that carry out community work in some neighborhoods of the locality of San Cristóbal mainly. The groups were investigated through semi-structured interviews, observation of data on line and analysis of communicative products. The data analysis was done through inductive matrices that allow the triangulation of the information. This process allowed to identify that the collective actions of young people in the South- East Territory are mobilizations that try to transform adverse situations, through art, culture, popular education, alternative communication and in general, community work that builds popular power.
