ABOUT US

Latinoamérica21 (L21) is a media and content platform that brings together a broad community of experts and academics who produce analysis and opinion texts on political, economic, and social issues in Latin America. Through the free dissemination of highly qualified and diverse points of view, we seek to contribute to the improvement of the critical opinion of citizens on the main issues taking place in the region.

We also seek to foster democracy and dialogue, looking to a culture of peace and non-violence. We want to promote freedom of expression in line with the objectives of Communication for Development of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the United Nations 2030 Agenda.

L21 currently has a team of 15 people, including editors, journalists, and academics, and more than 300 specialized columnists in the region, which has led us to become a bridge between academia and the wider audience.

The diversity of backgrounds and points of view of our contributors also seeks to advocate a pluralistic environment and greater gender equity, as well as a more inclusive communication that encourages the participation of minority groups in the region.

The content produced is published on the L21 website in Spanish, Portuguese, and English and on our media partner network, which comprises several of the region’s leading newspapers. The path we have followed in these years has positioned us as a collaborative, independent, and pluralistic media of reference, which advocates the dissemination of content that reflects on regional and global events.

The opinions expressed in the articles represent the personal view of the authors, not that of L21.

“Communication and the media are at the heart of promoting sustainable development and democracy. The right to freedom of expression just as the right to freedom of information underpin a free, pluralistic, inclusive and independent media environment.”

UNESCO, 2017
