The dominant narratives and representations on African territories are debated by contributions that question, investigate, explore and produce territorial knowledge in a critical and committed manner. The work of the photojournalists unfolds a process of production and research prior to the realization of the publications and elaboration after the fieldwork in the territory. The problematization of the landscapes observed and analyzed by these professionals is closely linked to the work of geographers because they share spatial analysis strategies. Their voices become alternatives because they show unseen realities and allow to broaden the critical view of distant territories. This paper aims to establish the connections between geographical knowledge and the contributions of photojournalists doing fieldwork in different territories of the African continent. First, a theoretical argumentation of the perspective of personal geographies is elaborated, then the articulations between geography and image are analyzed, and finally, publications in different formats by the Argentinean Juan Ignacio Incardona, the Colombian Salym Fayad and the Spanish Xaxier Aldekoa are presented. The results of this research aim to establish dialogues between research and teaching of African themes. |

I28-R145-15490_oai2025-11-17 Nin, María Cristina 2025-09-04 The dominant narratives and representations on African territories are debated by contributions that question, investigate, explore and produce territorial knowledge in a critical and committed manner. The work of the photojournalists unfolds a process of production and research prior to the realization of the publications and elaboration after the fieldwork in the territory. The problematization of the landscapes observed and analyzed by these professionals is closely linked to the work of geographers because they share spatial analysis strategies. Their voices become alternatives because they show unseen realities and allow to broaden the critical view of distant territories. This paper aims to establish the connections between geographical knowledge and the contributions of photojournalists doing fieldwork in different territories of the African continent. First, a theoretical argumentation of the perspective of personal geographies is elaborated, then the articulations between geography and image are analyzed, and finally, publications in different formats by the Argentinean Juan Ignacio Incardona, the Colombian Salym Fayad and the Spanish Xaxier Aldekoa are presented. The results of this research aim to establish dialogues between research and teaching of African themes. Resumen Las narrativas y representaciones dominantes sobre los territorios africanos, se ponen en debate por los aportes que cuestionan, investigan, recorren y producen conocimiento territorial de manera crítica y comprometida. La labor de los fotoperiodistas despliega un proceso de producción e investigación previas a la concreción de las publicaciones y elaboración posterior al trabajo de campo en el territorio. La problematización de los paisajes observados y analizados por estos profesionales presenta estrechos vínculos con el trabajo de los geógrafos debido a que se comparten estrategias de análisis espacial. Sus voces se convierten en alternativas debido a que muestran realidades no visibles y permiten ampliar las miradas críticas respecto a territorios lejanos. Este trabajo pretende establecer las conexiones entre el conocimiento geográfico y los aportes de fotoperiodistas que realizan trabajo de campo en diversos territorios del continente africano. En primer lugar se elabora una argumentación teórica de la perspectiva de las geografías personales, luego de analizan las articulaciones entre geografía e imagen y finalmente se presentan publicaciones en diversos formatos del argentino Juan Ignacio Incardona, del colombiano Salym Fayad y del español Xaxier Aldekoa. Los resultados de la presente indagación pretenden establecer diálogos entre la investigación y la enseñanza de temáticas africanas. As narrativas e representações dominantes dos territórios africanos são desafiadas por contribuições que questionam, investigam, exploram e produzem conhecimento territorial de maneira crítica e comprometida. O trabalho dos fotojornalistas desdobra-se em um processo de produção e pesquisa antes das publicações e de elaboração após o trabalho de campo no território. A problematização das paisagens observadas e analisadas por esses profissionais está intimamente ligada ao trabalho dos geógrafos, pois compartilham estratégias de análise espacial. Suas vozes se tornam alternativas porque mostram realidades invisíveis e nos permitem ampliar nossa visão crítica de territórios distantes. Este artigo tem como objetivo estabelecer as conexões entre o conhecimento geográfico e as contribuições dos fotojornalistas que realizam trabalho de campo em diferentes territórios do continente africano. Primeiro, é elaborada uma argumentação teórica da perspectiva das geografias pessoais, depois são analisadas as articulações entre geografia e imagem e, por fim, são apresentadas as publicações em diferentes formatos do argentino Juan Ignacio Incardona, do colombiano Salym Fayad e do espanhol Xaxier Aldekoa. Os resultados desta pesquisa visam a estabelecer diálogos entre a pesquisa e o ensino de temas africanos. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/RPS/article/view/15490 10.34096/ps.n13.15490 spa Instituto de Geografía "Romualdo Ardissone", UBA https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/RPS/article/view/15490/15225 Derechos de autor 2025 María Cristina Nin Punto Sur; No. 13 (2025): GEOGRAFÍA Y TRANSVERSALIDAD: PENSAR PREGUNTAS DE ESTE TIEMPO EN CLAVE DE ENSEÑANZA; 126-151 Punto Sur; Núm. 13 (2025): GEOGRAFÍA Y TRANSVERSALIDAD: PENSAR PREGUNTAS DE ESTE TIEMPO EN CLAVE DE ENSEÑANZA; 126-151 2683-7404 GEOGRAFÍAS PERSONALES.
