Project title *
Digital Communication Strategy for Indigenous Communities
Description *
It is a strategy that aims to preserve cultural identity, traditions and religions of indigenous communities as well as to promote and enhance their cultural and linguistic diversity and cultural heritage. The first component of the Strategy is “Ecos Indígenas” which brings together the work of 21 stations that make up the Indigenous Cultural Radio Broadcasting System. These transmitters transmit in Modulated Amplitude (AM) and Modulated Frequency (FM); They are located in the main indigenous regions of Mexico. Each of them transmits in the majority languages of its coverage area and, in addition, collects the cultural, musical and artistic expressions of the indigenous peoples of the region. Another component is the collection of the National Commission for the Development of Indigenous Peoples that includes the Collection of Indigenous Art, The collection of Film and Video "Alfonso Muñoz", the Library "Juan Rulfo", the audio library "Henrietta Yurchenco", and the "Nacho López" photo library. The last component, which is currently in development is The Atlas of the Indigenous Peoples of Mexico is another component where you will find audio materials, video, photographs and the ethnographic description that will allow you to get closer to the knowledge of the indigenous peoples of the country.
