With the screening of the documentary Fidel and the Journalists, the day for Cuban Press Day begins this Tuesday at the grassroots delegation of the Union of Journalists of Cuba (UPEC in the Spanish acronym) of Radio Mayari in the province of Holguin.
The main activities will be aimed at strengthening the stimulation of work towards excellence in journalistic communication, enriching the values of history and promoting exchange with sources.
Within the framework of the 133rd anniversary of the creation of the Patria Newspaper by José Martí, on March 14, 1892, a representation of Radio workers in Mayari will visit the Cave of Sao Corona, the site where Antonio Maceo republished Cubano Libre, an independent press organ founded by Carlos Manuel de Céspedes on October 17, 1868.
Likewise, the day will pay tribute to the deceased journalists Armando Ricardo Muñoz, Nixón Fuentes Pérez and Roberto Fabré Aldana, recognized for their contributions in this Holguin municipality.
Over the next few days there will be an opportunity to raise knowledge about artificial intelligence applied to the media and the trends of the so–called citizen journalism, while a workshop will be held linked to the stylistic writing of journalism in the flat, radio, television and digital press.
The proposals include an exchange with the Revolutionary War Marine Corps and the awarding of the Félix Elmusa distinction to journalists with outstanding careers and more than fifteen years in the profession.
Cuba is committed to a model of press and public communication that is more participatory, transparent and connected to the needs of the reconfiguration of the Cuban model of socialist development.
The implementation of the Social Communication Law reinforces this path, providing a regulatory framework that allows ordering, articulating and strengthening the media system with a vision of greater sovereignty and efficiency.
