Comunicación para el buen vivir : visibilización de las experiencias e identidades de las mujeres que habitaron calle en Bogotá

Abstract

Based on this proposal for a photographic gallery and hand in hand with the theory of Communication for Good Living, we sought to provide a different lens to the communicative scenario, betting on telling stories from another place: one that goes beyond instrumentalism, that manage to sustain us under the understanding of the other as an own extension. Through the conceptualization of terms such as Identity, Experience, City, Good Living and Communication for Good Living, we carried out a transforming exercise that generated ruptures in the discourses that are woven through the concept of street dweller and that led us to understand other ways of inhabiting the city. For the above, this research proposed to know and analyze the life dynamics of women who lived on the streets in the City of Bogotá and the way in which they modified their identity. All this, through their own stories and experiences.
