Implicaciones de la minería y la resistencia dada a partir del campo de la comunicación comunitaria en la vereda San Jorge desde 2014

Abstract

Community resistance emerges when citizens have the freedom to exercise it. In the specific case of San Jorge, a village in the municipality of Soacha, the community faces the phenomenon of mining within its territory. This thesis aims to conduct an analysis based on qualitative data and documented theory to understand the background of San Jorge, focusing on the period from 2014 to the present. Special emphasis will be placed on the resistance processes that have taken place and how communicative mechanisms influence them. The general objective of this study is to analyze comprehensively how community resistance mechanisms, mediated by communication systems, affect the reinterpretation and empowerment of the identity of San Jorge, as well as its capacity to confront mining presence. Additionally, it is expected to deliver an audiovisual product that enables the farmers to recognize their struggle and the work they have done to defend their territory, encouraging them to be reflective and active in this process to keep the resistance alive.
