Internet channel for Spanish-speaking children launches programs

24/07/2008

Teleclip, a new channel for Spanish-speaking children, ages 7 to 16 years old, aims “to bring the media and children closer, giving priority to the news that interests the young ones,” explained the supporters of the initiative.

But the programs are also “an investigation on how media convergence affects children, and how this generation, called ‘messenger,’ is revolutionizing the conventional media,” they added.

Programs have been created in collaboration with Universidad de la Coruña and Complutense de Madrid, as well as with Chilean, Mexican and Peruvian productions. Plans are in the works to expand the network in the Spanish-speaking world.
