New and challenging aspects of our profession with the best teachers in XXV AMMPE Congress
During our professional life, we journalists have few opportunities to improve our skills and acquire more knowledge to keep us up to date with new topics and technologies. Attending an international meeting that brings together leading experts is a rare opportunity that we cannot miss.
The XXV World Congress of Women Journalists and Writers is an exceptional opportunity where we can learn from professors who teach at important universities in Europe and the United States, those relevant subjects that challenge us in our professional practice.
Listen to the great Spanish journalist and writer, Rosa Montero, talk about the difficulties she herself had at the beginning of her professional career. To contemplate in her account her development as a columnist and later as a novel writer will be almost magical for all of us who admire her versatility, her exquisite command of language and the agility of her pen.
Todo lo anterior, complementado con un panel que tratará el tema de “La perspectiva de género en los medios y la literatura actual”, bajo las miradas expertas de dos doctoras de la Universidad Autónoma de México, la chilena María Soledad Vargas y la mexicana Aimée Vega.
In turbulent and uncertain times for the world's democracies, and specifically that of the United States, it will be very useful for us to know the opinion of the sociologist, researcher at the Annenberg School for Communication (University of Pennsylvania), Dr. Sandra González-Bailón, on “Truth and democracy in a world plagued by disinformation”.
This will be a perfect match with the presentation by Dr. Carlos Scolari, from Pompeu Fabra University on “The evolution of the media, the challenges of AI and new technologies”.
Students and professors of communication schools will have a special panel dedicated to them, “The challenges facing journalism education”. In charge of showing us this trend will be Dr. Jessica Retis, director of the School of Journalism at the University of Arizona, USA.
After the experience of the COVID 19 pandemic, we all learned something about medicine, although most of the media had to improvise, without understanding very well the importance of science dissemination in all its facets. We will live a great experience listening to the talk of Dr. Ricardo Rozzi who will receive us in the southernmost city on the planet, Puerto Williams, to explain why the region of Magallanes and Chilean Antarctica is a vital place for the study of science and the environment.
All of the above has been possible thanks to the collaboration of several foreign and Chilean universities, Universidad de Chile, PUC; PUCV; UAI; UDD; UAH. We also have the enthusiastic participation of two ambassadors; and delegates from AMMPE Italy, México, Guatemala, Spain, Argentina, United States and Ethiopia who will present various papers and books and tell experiences that will help us understand the evolution of the profession in various parts of the world.
“OUR NORTH IS IN THE SOUTH"
Do not miss this wonderful experience of friendship and exchange of experiences that we offer you in our XXV World Congress in Punta Arenas, which will be held between September 23 and 27. More information in www.congresoammpe2024.org and www.ammpeworld.org
