However, obtaining information can be extremely difficult. Even in the digital age, entire population groups are largely excluded from voicing their needs and concerns. This is especially true for people who live in rural areas and for indigenous groups. The hindrances are many. Media monopolies, for example, limit diversity. In areas where a few companies own almost all of the TV and radio stations, minorities face challenges in making their voices heard. Civil society organizations often complain about "deaf states" where governments are reluctant to release information. And journalism is a dangerous profession in many Latin American countries. Critical media workers here are often put under pressure or attacked, with dramatic consequences for freedom of expression. In response, DW Akademie supports networks that enable people to access information. We support community radio stations, local journalist networks and online activists, and advocate indigenous peoples' right to freedom of expression and information. Together with partners, we develop innovative training approaches and advise alternative media on ways to develop sustainable business models. We promote social dialogues - for example, in coming to terms with the horrors of civil war - and support those who teach young people how to use the media critically. Promoting local expertise and developing local networks therefore plays a central role in our projects in Latin America. News María Teresa Juárez: "Journalism should not have a top-down approach" Periodistas de a Pie, a Mexican network for local media, has published a handbook that counters disinformation around elections. Aimed at journalists, it promotes media skills through Media and Information Literacy. Bolivia: A network of 'MIL Super Agents' prepares to dismantle disinformation Willian Carballo is uncovering the life cycle of disinformation in El Salvador Guatemala: Algorithmic literacy for teachers and communicators Floresta Digital: Digital community network to boost Brazilian Amazon communities Media dialogue in Mexico: Independent media 'is an ally of democracy' Do No Harm: Researching and communicating safely from the Amazon Youth mobilize to curb disinformation and hate speech Disinformation: a common challenge "The radio operator said dangerous people were coming to Morochata (Cochabamba). The community got scared and tried to block their way by making trees fall or burning things; some people escaped to the hill," says Cecilia. "It turned out that it wasn't true that they were coming, it was a lie." This is one of the experiences of disinformation shared in CEPRA's Ideathon on Media Competencies. Youth mobilize to curb disinformation and hate speech Identify risks in order to deal with them CEPRA, DW Akademie's partner in Bolivia, brought together young people, family members and teachers in this ideathon to identify risks in the communication channels they use, such as social networks, and how to respond to them. All participants agreed on the need for more information and practical workshops to learn how to protect themselves. Youth mobilize to curb disinformation and hate speech Collaborative work between professionals and young people Ideathon participants, who came from schools in six municipalities in Cochabamba and one in Chuquiasca, paid close attention to the CEPRA team's instructions. Multimedia producer and trainer Fabiana Condori discussed the Ideathon activities to be developed and answered students' questions. Youth mobilize to curb disinformation and hate speech Learning can also be playful Gloria Rosales, CEPRA's trainer, explained to the participants the five media competencies: access, analyze, create, reflect and act. These competencies were conveyed in an entertaining way to keep the young audience's attention, in this case through a story that included the adventures of young characters. Youth mobilize to curb disinformation and hate speech A space of trust to learn together Little by little, more schoolchildren shared cases of harassment, extortion or online scams through messaging applications. The young people said, for example, that they called one of their grandmothers and asked her for phone cards to free her son; or that a person pretended to be a cancer patient to get money. Both were lies. Youth mobilize to curb disinformation and hate speech Collective construction of responses to the challenges The adolescents developed proposals to counter the risks of new communication technologies. Their ideas included the production of short informative videos, musical or theatrical compositions, as well as debates on misinformation. They also recommended asking an older person for help when dangerous or suspicious messages arrive. Youth mobilize to curb disinformation and hate speech Curbing disinformation: a shared responsibility "It is important to be aware that families, teachers, communicators and young people are all at imminent risk from disinformation," says Luis Salazar, CEPRA's project coordinator, during the ideathon event. "Every day we are exposed to some degree of disinformation and it is our responsibility to learn the tools to combat it." Youth mobilize to curb disinformation and hate speech An enriching path to follow After this first step in the development of media skills in the face of misinformation and online risks, all participants agreed to contribute to future training workshops on the appropriate use of new technologies and social networks, as well as to foster inter-institutional partnerships. This is the beginning of a long learning journey!
