vestigación en comunicación, los programas sociales en salud son ejercidos por los políticos y administradores públicos, y no ciertamente desde la visión teórico-metodológica. Por ello es común que, en las acciones de comunicación, se carezca de una praxis metódica tanto para el diseño como para su implementación, ya sea para las instituciones privadas o públicas. Esto significa un área de oportunidad para el comunicólogo, es decir, existe un gran nicho de aplicación de la investigación. El presente trabajo aborda algunas áreas de relevancia en comunicación y salud: a) diagnóstico, b) planeación, c) validación, d) monitoreo y e) evaluación, entre otras."

It should serve as a hands-on toolbox for practitioners working to advance media freedom and is based on an approach first developed and implemented by DW Akademie and the Center for International Media Assistance (CIMA) in 2015. We aim to make this method available for international organizations carrying out consultations, as well as regional and local organizations who would like to do so.

"The main recommendations we propose are:
1. Before proceeding with any development, analyze the need and social value of it. Consider the potential benefits and drawbacks of implementing the project.

ties interested in developing an AI application. Consider the possible secondary uses of the application of the project and its possible harmful effects.
3. Analyze the data sources with which the model may be trained, taking into consideration the protection of personal data and intellectual property. Pay close attention to potential biases to ensure that all groups are adequately and non-discriminatorily represented, with a special focus on minorities.
4. When training and evaluating predictive models, incorporate a methodology for checking well-known limitations of models that lead to pernicious results: underrepresented classes, majority classes, a tendency to overfit, etc. Incorporate also more general error analysis to detect previously unknown limitations.
5. Carry out deployment in phases, accompanied by the corresponding monitoring mechanisms for early detection of pernicious effects of the implementation of the system in actual contexts, incorporating different perspectives into the analysis of the behavior of the system.
Equity analysis must be transversal, i.e., a reflective resource present throughout the entire system development and construction process, rather than being applied only when evaluating the discriminatory impacts of a system after it has been deployed." (Executive Summary)
