The Collective of Communicators promotes the voices of Indigenous leaders and defenders of Pachamama, where the spirituality of Indigenous Peoples is sustained. They work with different institutions and communities to meet the current need for more media and publications that address Indigenous issues in Argentina. The Native voices that are featured express their realities and worldview in their native language.
The objective of the Raíces Ancestrales Indigenous Audiovisual Production Company is identity-based communication to make visible new voices of women, Indigenous youth, children, and Elders.
