Abstract

This research is a longitudinal comparative study where through the exercise of radio production in two periods (2018-2019 and 2022) with children and adolescents in Bucaramanga, Colombia, an exercise of power in the face of adultcentrism mediated by narratives in which the participants find their own voice and a collective voice is evidenced. Through the content analysis of the scripts produced, participant observation and transcripts of the workshops, it is evident how they represent the adult and how, from their stories, they internalize adultcentrism or resist it.
