MUNOZ-NAVARRO, ANTONIETA  e  DEL VALLE ROJAS, CARLOS. Current challenges in Communication for Social Change Educational requirements for professionals in Communication. Signo pensam. [online]. 2011, vol.30, n.58, pp.192-205. ISSN 0120-4823.

The main purpose of this paper is to take the postulates of Communication for Social Change as a reference and, within this framework, proceed with a critical reflection on the education received by social communicators in Chile; from here, we venture a new theoretical and methodological proposal whereby tools for curricular design are presented in order to offer students an adequate socio-cultural context vis-à-vis communication. In praxeological terms, in Chile, and in spite of the fact that the country has important historical references, Communication for Social Change, Communication for Development, and/or Participative and Alternative Communication are still in want in most educational spaces.

Palavras-chave : Communication for Social Change; Communication for Development; Participative Communication; Development; Mapuche/Communicators Conflict; Professional of signallers -- Chile; Social change -- Chile; Mapuche conflict --Chile.
