In the midst of the pandemic that we are experiencing, we believe that it was necessary to reflect on the communication processes generated around the health crisis, the phenomena of misinformation and fake news that we live day by day, difficulties in the dynamics of consensus in public opinion and institutional and ethical challenges to manage information today.

  • Ethics and professionalism of the media in the treatment of information in catastrophe contexts
  • Construction of global stories about the pandemic from the media and civil society.
  • Information reception and consumption processes in the Covid-19 era
