Sie hat Soziale Kommunikation mit Schwerpunkt Journalismus an der Pontificia Universidad Javeriana in Bogot\u00e1, Kolumbien, studiert. Schon in jungen Jahren war sie stark motiviert, Geschichten zu erz\u00e4hlen, die Welt zu erkunden und denen eine Stimme zu geben, die oft ungeh\u00f6rt bleiben. Ihr Engagement f\u00fcr Menschenrechte begleitet sie seit Beginn ihrer Laufbahn. Sie war von Anfang an aktiv an sozialen Projekten beteiligt. Dieses Engagement spiegelt sich auch im redaktionellen Fokus von Solkes Magazine wider, das unabh\u00e4ngigen Journalismus, kulturelle Vielfalt und tiefgr\u00fcndiges Erz\u00e4hlen in den Vordergrund stellt. Geboren in Bogot\u00e1, lebte Laura drei Jahre in Madrid, Spanien, und lebt seit Sommer 2010 in Deutschland. Diese multikulturelle Erfahrung hat ihre Perspektive bereichert und war entscheidend bei der Gr\u00fcndung eines dreisprachigen Magazins, das Grenzen \u00fcberschreitet und Leser weltweit verbindet.","sameAs":["http:\/\/www.solkes.com"],"url":"https:\/\/solkes.com\/en\/author\/lauraviera2019\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/solkes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34427","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/solkes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/solkes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/solkes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/76"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/solkes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34427"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/solkes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34427\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":34443,"href":"https:\/\/solkes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34427\/revisions\/34443"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/solkes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/22610"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/solkes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34427"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/solkes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34427"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/solkes.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34427"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
