abstract

  • Zaku-u is a native digital media on Instagram, which is part of the intercultural collaborative journalism and mobile narratives of today's world. In the framework of this undergraduate thesis, we thought about how to tell the stories of indigenous women who have led Colombian political and cultural spaces. That is why Zaku-u was born as a response to the invisibilization of the processes of indigenous women and their knowledge in the Colombian public opinion. Hence the development of a space within mobile journalism and social networks to discuss the role of indigenous women leaders in the country. The objective was to create this medium using these tools in order to report on their individual and community processes. For more than a year, after joint collaborations with women leaders, financial studies, editing and restructuring around Zaku-u, the first pilot of Zaku-u was created. Hence, the first versions of the stories have been published in order to know our audience, and thus, recognize us as a community within the social network. Zaku-u is a project by a woman of indigenous descent and for indigenous Colombian women. That is why its result has been a tool of intercultural collaborative journalism delivered to the women themselves. We hope to continue building mobile narratives that tell the stories of these women and for that, this project will continue to be under construction.
