Authors

Abstract

The article does research into the characteristics, history and social environment of a community and alternative radio experience, as it is FM La Colectiva, from Buenos Aires city, with a 14-year history. It is a case study that emphasizes the project´s management dimensions in order to learn and understand what it means to develop and sustain a participatory communication project in the current context. This text seeks to gain an in-depth understanding of a non-profit experience, its ways of working, its organizational, communicational, economic, and administrative aspects, with the aim of contributing towards a comprehensive understanding of the broad and diverse field of community communication, from the starting point of acknowledging the specificities of each particular experience and put them into context with the sectors and milieux they belong to.
