Choose a country from a specific region to find information about local news, business, economics, travel, and activities. This site would be especially useful for foreign language and social studies teachers. Part of information literacy is to know the veracity of the source of information. If newspapers or other media you access on the web are controlled by their government, you should know that. Consult the map on the main page to get a quick view of free, partly free, and not free media countries.
Access reports from the individual countries to get a more detailed picture.
Latin Focus give access to economic figures from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Brazil and Venezuela. Included in this site are articles and charts outlining economic indicators and news from the region. I am greatly indebted to many teachers and pupils for the feedback, and for suggestions regarding new sites worth including.
