El Círculo de Investigaciones Participativas de CCATE (CIPC) comparte su primer podcast que es resultado de dos años de trabajo de investigación del tema “Raíces”. Para esto el grupo uso la técnica de fotovoz en el que el grupo realizo entrevistas a fondo entre sus miembros usando imágenes que apelaran a ellas como inmigrantes, y quienes compartieron acerca de sus pueblos de origen y sobretodo de su memoria. En este ejercicio que además está acompañado de alegría y de dolor, se preguntan ellas si el ejercicio les llevo ¿a desenterrar o a exhumar sus raíces?, ¿hablamos de raíces muertas o de raíces vivas? Les invitamos a que escuchen este primer piloto, avanzamos y abrimos camino, esperamos que este diálogo les lleve a su propia memoria como inmigrante. 

English Version:

To Dig up or Exhume Roots

The CCATE Participatory Research Circle (CIPC) shares its first podcast, which is the result of two years of research work on the topic “Roots.” For this, the group used the photovoice technique in which the group conducted in-depth interviews among its members using images that appealed to them as immigrants, and who shared about their towns of origin and especially their memory. In this exercise, which is also accompanied by joy and pain, they ask themselves if the exercise led them to dig up or exhume their roots? Are we talking about dead roots or living roots? We invite you to listen to this first pilot, we move forward and open the way, we hope that this dialogue takes you to your own memory as an immigrant.
