Mission and Objectives

Noticias, a Dutch non-profit media organisation. Noticias provides news and background information about Latin America in the Netherlands. Moreover we publish about the lives of
Latin American migrants in the Netherlands and Europe.

Main Projects / Activities

Amongst other since 2010 we have been monitoring and reporting on the GFMD (Global Forum for Migration and Development) and organized media workshops for migrants. In 2013 we started with a project called 'Picturing Migration'. This project is an initiative that links migrants' engagement in the development of their societies of origin and their daily lives in the Netherlands. In addition, it encourages migrants to produce their own media. We produce video's, blogs and do research on the social media use of migrant organizations. All our productions are published on our project website www.laruta.nu/migratie

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

We can contribute to the network with our productions and with our knowledge and experience with media, making videos, writing articles and doing research on migration related issues.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

As member of the ALF network we would like to contribute with our productions to the promotion of intercultural dialogue across Europe, to learn from the other members and possibly form new partnerships within Europe.
