Concepciones y propuestas de las comunidades en tres municipios del Magdalena Medio en relación con la búsqueda de la Paz

Abstract

Colombia has suffered, in many of its regions, the consequences of a conflict that has bled its territory and, particularly, to the three localities under study of the present investigation. They were more than fifty years of suffering because of the war due to a generalized violence that affected the national fabric. However, the people never lost faith and have kept alive the hope of a sustainable and lasting peace, for which they have been contributing their bit. The objective of the research is to show how in Barrancabermeja, Puerto Boyacá and San Pablo the communities in movement have been organizing themselves to develop concrete actions in favor of that Colombian desire, from the different conceptions of peace itself and the territory. The research has a qualitative approach, however, due to its descriptive nature, it makes use of quantitative elements, generating greater objectivity around the participation of social leaders.
