Colombia: The Human Rights Crisis, Search for Peace and International Solidarity

Add to calendar


Pablo Navarrete (Alborada) and Mariela Kohon (Justice for Colombia) discuss the human rights crisis in Colombia and the threat to the country’s peace agreement under the new far right president Ivan Duque. This session will include a screening of a short film called ‘Truce’ which explores the role of female FARC guerrillas in negotiating the Colombian conflict, who are seeking not only to bring an end to the world’s longest armed conflict, but also to guarantee women’s rights and social justice in Colombia.
