Abstract
This article presents an overview of environmental communication scholarship about and from Latin America. It explores the main trends, developments, and characteristics of this scholarship, and the differences from and connections to scholarship developed in the Global North. Latin American researchers have developed robust and unique contributions to the understanding of communication processes about the environment, some of which can expand epistemic considerations that Global North researchers should consider. The article also reviews theoretical and methodological shortcomings that need to be recognized, some of which are tied to historic and political processes in the region. The article concludes with recommendations to overcome the challenges that scholars face, and to harness existing strengths that could result in the consolidation of international environmental communication scholarship.
