The logic of violence has permeated public and private life. Over five decades of armed conflict have left deep traces in Colombian society.

The consortium of Como-Berghof and its team in Colombia has been active in the framework of the German Development Cooperation's ProPaz programme, supporting actors from different sectors and national, regional and local level to better engage for peace. Our work supports conflict transformation, violence prevention and the implementation of Colombia’s 2016 peace agreement at and from a subnational level. Our work accompanied Colombian actors in developing and implementing conflict transformation and peace efforts on different levels, and shares the lessons learnt in order to improve national policies.įocusing on regional peacebuilding in Colombia, our team and its network have been advising departments and municipalities on better transforming their violent conflict by using existing processes, such as for example, integrating peacebuilding in their regional and local development plans.
