Tere Alcántara invites the children to become broadcasters for a day and discover a love of the radio. This workshop will be about the secrets of the medium, discovering the power of their voices —working on breathing, diction and intention—, as well as teamwork, as they design and record their own radio programme. From the creation of content to presenting it, they will become the creators of their first programme.

Hay Festival Constellations: journalism
–
Teatro de la Ciudad
Hay Festival Constellations creates a space for intergenerational dialogue within the Mexican cultural scene, in fields such as literature, film, music, science and activism. Truth, ethics and the urge to tell us the facts are all a part of good journalism. Carmen Aristegui and an emergent journalist selected by her will dialogue about the current state and value of a profession that has gone from being seen as «the Fourth Estate», to being mistrusted and even vilified by certain discourses and some sectors of society.

John Vaillant (USA/Canada) won the Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-fiction for Fire Weather, a book about the terrible forest fire that burned Fort McMurray, the centre of the Canadian oil industry. In this brilliant work, Vaillant argues that it was not just a fire, but a warning that we need to prepare for an ever hotter and more inflammable world.

The story that all Mexico believed: the kidnapping of a child and the later media campaign of a mother seeking justice, which involved the highest spheres of power in the country. This was the Wallace case, when the victim became the perpetrator. In Fabricación, the journalist and writer Ricardo Raphael (Mexico) tells how a manufactured grief became a spectacle, and a manipulation of the reality, justice and the media. A true story that could have been a thriller and a systematic reminder of the impunity that haunts us.
