This work presents an overview of the activity radio has developed in the educational field in Latin America, highlighting the ACPO model in Sutatenza, Colombia, imitated by other Latin American Catholic radio stations that subsequently formed the fundamental axis for creating the Latin American Radio Education Association (ALER), which today has become the most important satellite system in America and which forms part of the Radio Institute Fe y Alegría (IRFA), an organism that, with its radio station network, has promoted a series of communications strategies that have been useful for confronting the challenges and demands of its action in popular education. To achieve the proposed aims, a review was made of various researchers dedicated to studying this subject, among whom figure Lewis and Booth, Bernal, Figueroa, Geerts and Von Oeyen, García, O’Sullivan and Correa. Results allow for the conclusion that the work of radio stations has been very important for education in Latin America
