Abstract

This document gathers some of the results obtained from the study on women journalists facing violence and discrimination in Ecuador, developed by Ecuadorian organisations Consejo de Desarrollo y Promoción de la Información y Comunicación (Consejo de Comunicación), the Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja (UTPL), the Universidad Técnica de Cotopaxi (UTC), the Federación Nacional de Periodistas de Ecuador (FENAPE) and the Unión Nacional de Periodistas (UNP). This research is based on a conceptual theoretical approach and mixed methodological application for the systematization and analysis of recurrences in 100 interviews. Gender violence was evidenced in physical and digital spaces, in the workplace and in the exercise of informative work. At the same time, the rights, intersectional, gender, intercultural and intergenerational approaches were transversalized to address different aspects of this problem, which is current in the Ecuadorian journalistic culture and directly related to the right to freedom of expression.
