TransversalRD bets on plural communication in digital times

With enthusiastic attendance and an atmosphere charged with reflection, the digital medium TransversalRD was officially launched in the Social Security Auditorium of INTEC. The event, organized by Contexto Comunicaciones, marked the beginning of a new platform dedicated to the critical and plural analysis of the issues that impact the democratic life of the Dominican Republic. As part of its launch, TransversalRD presented the panel "Freedom of expression vs. Big Tech: control or guarantee?", with the participation of: Persio Maldonado, Edith Febles, Sergio Carlo, Laura Castellanos, Maribel Reyes and José Martínez Brito, while Lissette Selman, served as moderator. Amada Herrera, director of TransversalRD, "holding this panel as the launch of TransversalRD is not a coincidence, but a clear demonstration of the commitment to be a medium where diverse ideas converge to reflect together on the type of democracy we need to build in a country where technology advances faster than laws and where, without a doubt, young people are called to be protagonists of the communication of the future."
