For this season’s 10th episode, you will get to know more about another story from Latin America. We’re talking about an experience in the countryside of Colombia, in an Indigenous community, where the Jxa'h Wejxia Casil Community Network is operating. To tell you more about this story, we talked to Edinson Camayo. He is a member of the Nasa Indigenous Nation and the project’s coordinator.
You will also travel with us to Mexico, where our team interviewed Adriana Labardini Inzunza. She is the policy coordinator for Latin American and the Caribbean at the Local Networks initiative. For many years, Adriana has analysed the role that regulators and policy makers have in increasing people’s well-being through access to information and communications technologies (ICTs) to promote human rights.
“Routing for Communities” is a 12-episode podcast. Here you will listen to the life stories of people who have come up with alternatives to overcome the challenges of digital inclusion in remote, rural and urban areas across the globe.
