Resume

The purpose of the project is to promote spaces for dialogue between Colombian civil society organizations in order to strengthen alliances that work on memory and non-repetition as necessary contributions to peacebuilding. Three regional meetings will be held, as well as a central meeting in Bogotá, in which representatives of social organizations, victims of the armed conflict, artists, academics, ex-combatants, and public officials will participate to share reflections on their experiences working with memory, mental health and reparation in the peace process. The participants will develop a roadmap of collective actions that contribute to guarantee non-repetition of serious crimes in Colombia, and set out a path of engagement with relevant state institutions, to encourage them to integrate and support the approaches and conclusions that emerge from the meetings.
