Abstract

We present the results of a Sistematización de Experiencias/Systematizationof Experiences (SdE) among twelve researchers from Latin America aboutenvironmental communication research carried out across the region.The purpose was to characterize the state of the field, providing a basisfor identifying common axes among diverse approaches, problems, andepistemological perspectives of the academic communities, which makeenvironmental communication a situated construct relevant to the LatinAmerican context and its socioenvironmental problems. This processincludes a critical analysis of the opportunities for development and thechallenges facing this emerging academic field, together with acontextualized assessment of the region’s place on the internationalstage, highlighting the tensions and necessary dialogs betweencountries in the Global North and South. As a result, the ethical-politicalbackground of certain lines of research related to issues of conflict andsocial justice is recognized, as well as the need to consolidate the field inLatin America. We conclude that the regional experience has thepotential to critically contribute to the field in the international arena, asa proposal desde lo propio (from within) to other regions of the GlobalSouth and North, with whom it is necessary to establish a constructivedialog.
