Current Issues

The 7th of november of this year, the government of Chile started a plan called "Humanitarian Return Plan", that consists in flights paid by the state to take back voruntarily Haitian immigrants, that have a precarious situation in Chile, to their country. The first flight was on november 7th with 176 Haitian as passangers, and the second flight was on november 26th in which returned 179 people to their country, Haití, with a commitment of not comming back to Chile in 9 years time. The people from the government have told that this measure was carried out because lots of people from this specific country, have had a lot of troubles and obstacles to get a job and to settle down in Chile, and not because they are taking them out. In my opinion, this situation is a much bigger problem and it won't end with the departure of these people. The fact that they had to make the decision to leave the country they had just arrived in search of better jobs opportunities, without...

Post graduate studies

Journalism is a career that has different areas that allow the journalists to choose what they want to do in the future, and this characteristic make possible to relate the journalist work with other disciplines. From the beginning when I started to study this career I always wanted to continue studying something else, like post graduate studies.

I would love to take some postgraduate in other country specially Spain or England, because I also would love to live there some time. At the time I'm not very sure about what type of course I'll take but I think ...

My future job

I started to study journalism because I think it is a career in which I could mix my different skills and interests. I like to write, to investigate, to watch series and movies, and I love to travel to other countries. I’ve always liked cinema and cultural issues in general. I enjoy more been a spector of movies and works than creating it, thats why I didn't study cinema or something related to that. A good job for me would be something that makes me travel, and in which I could investigate about theories, and studies of the cinema in different places. One of the countries that I would love to visit and work are Spain, Germany and Australia, for it's cinema culture, languages and accents. Other thing that I like very much are the enviromental topics, so I would enjoy travelling to different places of Chile, investigating and making reports about nature and the lack of care for the environment in the country. I would hate to work in an office all day, that...
