About this talk
La charla cuenta la experiencia de la iniciativa Biblioghetto que lleva cerca de 15 años haciendo promoción de lectura en entornos urbanos no convencionales, como las calles, los parques, los expendios de drogas y los barrios con mayor índice de violencia en la ciudad de Cali, la más violenta de Colombia. Hemos desarrollado cerca de 900 talleres de lectura y escritura y articulado cerca de 100 proyectos de prevención de la violencia a través de la lectura y la escritura con nuestra biblioteca popular e itinerante.
The talk tells of the experience of the Biblioghetto initiative that has been promoting reading for almost 15 years in unconventional urban environments, such as the streets, parks, drug stores and neighborhoods with the highest rate of violence in the city of Cali, the most violent in Colombia. We have developed about 900 reading and writing workshops and articulated about 100 projects to prevent violence through reading and writing with our popular and itinerant library.
This session will be given in Spanish with an English translation.
