Covering South America for the Global Voices-ISN partnership

Tweet

I have been part of a joint project between Global Voices and ISN, a Swiss open-access Think Tank on International Relations and Security, aiming to "explore international relations and security through the lens of people who express themselves in online citizen media" around de world.

Since May 2012, the team of editors and authors has covered dozens of countries on a large number of hot international topics, (the whole list of posts can be reached on this special coverage page).

As you could expect, I focused my post on South America, particularly the Andean region and Bolivia, paying attention to ongoing conflicts and key development issues at this part of the planet.

This is the list of my five published articles out of this partnership.

• Bolivia: Development at What Cost? New Conflict Over TIPNIS Road
• Bolivia: Anti-US Rhetoric Harming its Diplomatic Relations?
• Combating Cocaine Production in Bolivia, Colombia and Peru
• Stormy Waters? The Maritime Border Disputes between Bolivia, Chile and Peru
• Latin America after Chávez: Change and Continuity

All of this articles have been primarily translated to French, Spanish and Arabic.

I would like to thank the editors from ISN and Global Voices, as well as my fellow authors for their  assistance and collaboration on this articles. A wonderful experience that I very much look forward to repeating in the future.

Posting for ISN on Security and International Relations

Being part of Global Voices (globalvoicesonline.org) is an amazing experience. As I commented before, It is a fantastic network of bloggers, activists and translators spreading peoples voices around the world.

As a Global Voices author, I was invited to join the Special Series on International Relations & Security, a project resulting from the partnership between Global Voices and the International Relations and Security Network (ISN) in Switzerland, a world-wide renowned Think Tank.

A number of posts will be published on the ISN blog discussing international relations and security issues from the citizen media point of view. 

All posts will be published/translated in/to English, Spanish, French and Arabic. 

I will be mainly posting on Latin America and more precisely on the Andean Region. The first post is "Development at What Cost? New Conflict Over Bolivia’s TIPNIS Road". 

As always, comments are most welcome.
