Strategic Policy Paper to Strengthen TV Fiction about Colombia’s Recent History
This document presents a set of policy recommendations aimed at key stakeholders in Colombia’s media ecosystem, with the goal of strengthening the production of television fiction about the country’s recent history. It is an initiative by GUMELAB, developed in collaboration with colleagues from Universidad de La Sabana, Universidad Externado de Colombia, Universidad del Rosario, and Cardiff University.
The recommendations are based on an analysis of the production processes, narrative content, and audience reception. Their purpose is to promote an ethical and socially engaged production that sensitively portrays the traumatic events of Colombia’s recent past and to influence decisions on its funding, representation, distribution, and preservation.
