Radiodocumentário “Mulheres na política: paridade possível”

Abstract

Women are 52% of brazilian population. However, they currently do not reach 15% of public elective positions in the country. The low representativity also occurs in every political and decision-making position. The radio documentary “Women in politics: possible parity” sought to contribute to the development of social critical sense on the topic through the use of a simple and accessible language, a communicational characteristic of the radio. The theoretical framework of the proposed theme supported the information contained in the product script. Interviews, transcriptions and decoupages were carried out considering the data collection, topics of interest and specialized sources for the narrative construction as well as for the recording of voiceover and insertion of sound resources from vignettes and soundtracks. These processes resulted in a production divided into three blocks: the history of women in politics, affirmative policies to guarantee more women in these positions and female leadership in social movements. Finally, the conclusion of the present work is that the debate proposed in the radio documentary is a systemic issue, which requires a change in social behavior. Thus, the experimental project operates as an instrument of this necessary transformation.
