This study aims to describe the social spaces, social roles and topics in which young Central Americans are mentioned in written mass media press between the years 2013 and 2017. Furthermore, this research belongs to youth studies that relate social conditions with the practices of those who are in that period of life. The retrospectively analyzed data derives from a 612 Central American news compilation from 2017 to 2013 of each online media’s platforms selected. The two main topics in which young people are mentioned are theoretically and historically discussed in depth, namely violence and education.

Keywords : youth; students; press news flow; communication process; disadvantaged youth.
