“…El caso de Colombia se erige como una posibilidad para reflexionar sobre los impactos de la violencia estructural, machista, racista y clasista, sobre el diario vivir de las personas que se identifican como mujeres en el continente. De hecho, la firma del acuerdo de paz entre el gobierno de Juan Manuel Santos y las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia-Ejército del Pueblo (FARC-EP) ha dado paso a uno de los programas de posacuerdo más avanzado en términos de enfoques diferenciales de género respecto a los estándares internacionales (Boutron, 2018). Además, es el primer acuerdo de paz, a nivel mundial, que tiene en cuenta las reivindicaciones LGBTIQ+ (Hagen, 2017).…”

Partiendo de los relatos personales y profesionales de 30 mujeres, el presente artículo expone los resultados de investigación respecto a la transversalización de género en Colombia. El objetivo es mostrar su comprensión desde tres diferentes ámbitos – académico, sector ONG e instancias del gobierno– con el fin de analizar las resistencias interseccionales como manera de lograr un cambio estructural en las opresiones vividas en el país. La metodología cualitativa se basa en 30 entrevistas semiestructuradas realizadas en Colombia entre 2017 y 2018, y en el análisis de documentos de políticas públicas. Los resultados aquí presentados se dividen en tres secciones donde se expone la comprensión que se tiene de la transversalización de género, los enfoques diferenciales en que se basó su implementación y las propuestas de las mujeres participantes sobre la interseccionalidad como una forma de lograr un cambio estructural.

“…The Northern Cauca region is one of the territories in which the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia–Ejército del Pueblo: FARC–EP) had a strong influence until the end of 2016, when a peace agreement was signed with the Colombian government. The agreement aimed for a reduction in inequality and a long-term development plan for Colombia (Chagas-Bastos, 2018), and even included an innovative gender perspective whose goal was to ensure women’s leadership in peacebuilding and prevent sexual violence in armed conflicts (Boutron, 2018). The treaty thus represented a real opportunity for change.…”

Self-organization for everyday peacebuilding: The Guardia Indígena from Northern Cauca, Colombia

2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The Nasa indigenous group's Guardia Indígena, whose primary goal is to protect indigenous people and their territories from all types of armed groups, is a nonviolent self-protection organization in Northern Cauca, Colombia. On 5 November 2014, while peace talks were ongoing between the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) and the Colombian government, two Guardia Indígena members were shot dead by FARC guerrillas. Without guns or physical violence, indigenous guards captured seven guerrillas responsible for the crime, and, four days later, indigenous organizations held a trial and sentenced the rebels to imprisonment. This article describes those events and investigates how the unarmed guards managed to capture the guerrillas and bring them to trial. The self-organization concept is used to gain insights into the mechanisms and strategies deployed. The mechanisms of the Guardia Indígena include constructing and applying specific social norms and values, developing a common goal, and applying a flexible mix of centralized and decentralized ways of organizing. By combining and activating these mechanisms at carefully chosen moments, indigenous people have succeeded in organizing themselves as a collective movement that is powerful enough to confront armed groups without using violence.
