Abstract
Using a Contracorriente exam, a project of the Nicaraguan feminist organization Puntos de encuentro, I have explored the role that feminist media can play in combination with support networks in multiplying dialogue opportunities and the promotion of women’s rights. The article tries to answer the following questions: How does feminist media take advantage of the power and knowledge base of transnational networks of support to represent and debate the impacts of globalization on the lives of women? What type of media and mediation can they access to discuss complex issues such as abortion, incest or rape with the general public? How does the creative process happen to transform a TV program in a catalyst to imagine the change and a platform for sharing solutions?
