La radio comunitaria y la gestión de espacios de participación de la nacionalidad Achuar de Pastaza

Abstract

This research work allows an analysis of the forms of citizen participation that show the extent to which community radio becomes an instrument for managing participation spaces and how they generate involvement in the public affairs of the Achuar Nationality of the province of Pastaza. Faced with the current problem, it should be noted that the experiences of participatory communication continue to grow as a response to a situation in which the voices of others are denied or hidden by the mass media and community radio as an alternative means of communication allows us to understand that promoting participation in public affairs of the community generates a direct, committed and authentic involvement with the real needs of the environment to understand and improve it. Thus, generating communication content from the experiences of the population, is not only necessary, but is a right, both communicational and participatory.
