ABOUT
The idea of Radioteca started in June 2004, at the II ???Foro Social de las Americas??? (Social Forum of the Americas). Some of the topics addressed in this event are: human rights, peace, poverty, hunger, corruption, democracy, indigenous people rights, social initiative 1. In this forum, a group of radio producers met at CIESPAL -Centro International de Estudios Superiores de Comunicacion para America Latina (International Center for Higher Communication Studies for Latin America). One of the projects proposed during this event was a digital platform where people could share audios. In 2005, UNESCO held a reunion in Guadalajara to talk about successful communication experiences in Latin America and Caribbean. Was until 2006, that Radioteca was launched, being UNESCO a great contributor to the project.
