Rueda | Ana María Larrea | Augusto Castro | Óscar Bonilla | Nicolás Rueda | Carlos Guzmán Corporate author: Latin American Council of Social Sciences (CLACSO) | UNESCO In this brief reflection, only in an introductory way, two questions are addressed.

How Youth Drive Change (The UNESCO Courier no. 3; July-September 2011) Year of publication: 2011 Corporate author: UNESCO Considering school history as a place of confrontation of discourse and knowledge from competing socialization spaces (school, family, media), we are interested in citizenship education work and challenges posed by these plural socializations. In an important context media coverage of debates on the recognition of minority memories in France and their entry into the school programs of the college in 2008, how do students appropriate the ""socially vivid issues"" of immigration, colonization, and decolonization? Fromcontent analysis of a corpus made up of around a hundred interviews semi-structured conducted between 2007 and 2010 with 3rd year college students (end of lower secondary and compulsory education), we analyze and highlight contrasting interpretations of these heritages by majority students and minority students, respectively supplied by categories of public debate and family narratives. We show, following work relating to the sociology of school curricula, which learning citizenship in the light of these historical legacies results from the confrontation of the pupils with the discourses and knowledge different spaces in which they take part. But it is above all the product oftheir position in the face of these historical legacies, according to their experiences social and the role they give to these stories in building a common identity and belonging. 
The Media: Operation Decontamination (The UNESCO Courier no. 2; July-September 2017) Year of publication: 2017 Corporate author: UNESCO The plurality of enlightened opinions is a prerequisite of the democratic development of our societies. The quality of the information disseminated by the media – traditional or new – is decisive when it comes to shaping public opinion. This is why UNESCO puts special emphasis on education about media and information, which it considers a fundamental skill for citizens in the twenty-first century.Freedom of expression and the free movement of ideas by words and images are among the constitutive principles of UNESCO and at the core of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. UNESCO supports the work of dedicated journalists and activists who defend fundamental freedoms, like the journalist Dawit Isaak, winner of the 2017 UNESCO/ Guillermo Cano World Press Freedom Prize, whose story appears in this issue of the UNESCO Courier.Over the last decade, more than 800 journalists have been victims of crimes aimed at muzzling freedom of expression. Only one murder out of ten ended with a conviction. This impunity is unacceptable and further fuels the spiral of violence in the future. This is why UNESCO is committed to putting an end to these crimes against the press, on all continents, as an indispensable condition for peaceful societies that are all the more robust for being better informed.In this “post-truth” era, the role of UNESCO is more important than ever, and this issue of the Courier is a wonderful opportunity to renew our founding commitment to support information and communication to build peace in the minds of men and women.
