Abstract

The article proposes a (re)reading of the organizational process of the feminist movement in Latin America from the appropriation of the internet and the technological tools for the creation of communication networks and for the strengthening of activism around the rights of women. To this end, it uses a literature review focused on women's rights to communication and documents that demarcate the debate about the need to disseminate alternative contents and strengthen women's
voices as political subjects, based on the initiatives promoted since the 1990s on the use communication to reduce gender inequalities. Throughout the text, the aim is to recover the debate about the strategies of feminist militancy articulated with the media field, in order to dialogue with the historical struggles of women for rights and with the demands and challenges of the present.
