zación de las interacciones, acelerando la innovación educativa en el confinamiento global, acentuando las desigualdades existentes y obligando al sistema educativo a reinventarse de manera urgente. Afrontar los retos que suponen la continua transformación mediática, la difusión de informaciones falsas sin control, el nuevo rol de los usuarios, múltiple y cambiante, y la generación de los personajes protagónicos de las redes, los influencers, entre otros aspectos, exige una formación específica que disminuya la brecha existente entre los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje y los cambios que se están dando en la sociedad. Así, el presente currículum aborda de una forma concreta y adecuada al perfil de los docentes las competencias que cualquier educador, independientemente del nivel y de la asignatura que imparta, debería desa rrollar para poder formar a su alumnado, atendiendo a los desafíos que nos impone la sociedad digitalizada y lograr, de este modo, que se desenvuelva eficazmente en ella. Este texto es una obra colectiva, producto de investigaciones y experiencias de los miembros de Alfamed, Red Euroamericana de Investigadores en Educomunicación. Desde una visión plural, multicultural y diversa, se ofrece un programa global de formación de profesores en educación mediática que amplía y actualiza el Curriculum MIL Unesco para los retos pospandémicos de la tercera década de este siglo. Participan un total de 22 investigadores de 12 países de América y Europa." (Contracubierta)

I looked at Telegram’s policies and functionalities to help understand what made it so attractive to misinformation actors both in the Ukraine, which has a long history of Telegram engagement, and Brazil, Spain and Germany where it has had more of an impact in recent years. According to the journalists and digital researchers I interviewed about investigating misinformation and disinformation on Telegram, there are ways to address the issue, both on and off the platform: by investigating movements and their political or financial interest, by producing more responsible journalism, through clearer communication from governments, and through the continued moderation efforts on other social media platforms."

so in enhancing their perception of the need to take action. At during- and post-disaster response recovery phases, community radio and social media are the key. These necessitate a resilient media infrastructure as the core of uninterrupted coverage. Media literacy has become an important issue for several stakeholders, including governments. In addition, more focus is placed on media governance to look at the priorities of disaster risk reduction initiatives within the media. All of these are considered to lead to trust in the media, which further improves people's disaster response actions based on information from the media, before and during disasters."

As examples of this interlinkage, we describe the cases of community radio journalists in the Philippines, photojournalists in Afghanistan and online journalists in Venezuela. Based on these examples from independently conducted studies from very different parts of the world, we make the broader case that while recognizing the prevailing political-economic and socio-cultural factors and forces at work in these media systems-in-flux, investigations of medium-specific threats to journalists are needed for more nuanced understanding of and thus mitigation of journalists’ insecurities."

s turbulentas décadas de los 60, 70 y 80 del Siglo XX. Al recorrer sus páginas, se evoca la sala de redacción con sus ruidosas máquinas de escribir y, especialmente, el espíritu comprometido con la noticia de quienes decidieron tomar la pluma como arma para defender sus ideas. Fernando Salazar, Harold Olmos y Juan Carlos Salazar nos trasladan a una época ardiente y agitada, y aunque no muy lejana, muy diferente a la actual. Apertura y Prensa, pese a su fugaz existencia, no constituyen las anécdotas de la historia del periodismo, más bien representan, junto a la Agencia de Noticias Fides (ANF), el carácter y el espíritu combativo de esa generación de periodistas. ¿Qué motivó a esos hombres y mujeres a impulsar un periodismo contestario al poder?, ¿lucharon por una ideología político partidaria o por la democracia?, y esa lucha, finalmente ¿triunfó? Sí, por supuesto que triunfó. En 1982, Bolivia recuperó la democracia y los militares se retiraron a sus cuarteles tras casi trece años de haber gobernado el país." (Renán Estenssoro Valdez)
