The anthology Agents and Voices: a Panorama of Media Education in Brazil, Portugal and Spain aims to contribute to strengthening international networks, the visibility of current research, and the exchange of experience regarding strategies and challenges, while promoting the field in each context.
Agents and Voices is the English version of the 2014 yearbook Agentes e Vozes: Um Panorama da Mídia-Educação no Brasil, Portugal e Espanha, published in Portuguese and Spanish by the International Clearinghouse on Children, Youth and Media at Nordicom, University of Gothenburg. It is important to note that Agentes e Vozes was the first time the Clearinghouse had organized a publication in the languages of its authors, Portuguese and Spanish, the official languages of more than 30 countries in Latin America, Africa and Europe. This has long been a wish of the Clearinghouse.
By publishing the book in English as well, we aim to facilitate the spread of information and the partnership among countries, reaching an even wider, intercontinental audience of interlocutors.
