Abstract
FIGUEROA, Isabela and FRANCO NOVOA, Noriana Marcela. The Legal Framework of the Differential Approach in Public Policies for Indigenous Women in Colombia. Estud. Polit. [online]. 2020, n.57, pp.71-90. ISSN 0121-5167. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.espo.n57a04.
This article reviews some of the multiple violences suffered by indigenous women victims of the armed conflict in Colombia, as well as some of the State’s public policies aimed at reducing their vulnerability. One of the administrative tools for attention to minority groups is the so-called «differential approach». This article seeks to identify the use that different State agencies have made of the term, how the Constitutional Court has been conceiving it, and the relationship between its application and the participation of indigenous women in the design and implementation of public policies. From a literature review of doctrines and laws, and a jurisprudential review of national and international cases, this study hopes to contribute to the discussion, creation, and execution of special measures that guarantee the full exercise of the rights of indigenous peoples. The analysis concludes that the Colombian State has not included indigenous women in its planning, monitoring, and implementation of public policies with ethnic and gender perspectives.
