Organisation: Periodismo Social Asociación Civil
Country: ARGENTINA
Periodismo Social (Social Journalism) is a civil association created with the aim of optimizing social dialogue by promoting and facilitating the inclusion of all the actors in society through the mass media. According to research undertaken by Periodismo Social, issues linked to poverty are very rarely treated by the press, thus rendering them almost invisible. When issues relating to poverty are presented by mainstream media they are done so in a de-contextualised, stigmatised, reductionist way without any awareness that they are dealing with the infringement of rights such as the right to education, health, etc. Given that mainstream media have a great capacity to ‘install agendas’ in the public debate the project, and the data it will produce, seek to encourage greater social sensitisation while at the same time advocate for public policies that contribute to reduce poverty . The project will result in a special report on the coverage of poverty done by 6 mainstream newspapers; articles on gender and poverty, four training workshops on how to cover poverty in such a manner that respects human rights and the gender dimension of poverty. The project will also provide input to special courses on issues of poverty in four universities.
