Descripció:Latin American academic literature on Media Literacy was examined to determine the importance of establishing Media Education initiatives in this region. After conducting a broad literature review, it was determined that the main discussion points in the subcontinent revolve around media literacy aimed at understanding content and language, followed by the use of technology and examination of institutional conditions that are conducive, or not, to media literacy. In most Latin American countries, the emergence of Media Literacy has been the result of organizational initiatives and scattered academic interest in this topic with the goal of provoking thought about experiences resulting from academic or political educational agendas of interest to academic authorities.
