This paper summarizes the main findings of a research project that deals with five cases of best practices to overcome the conflict in Valle del Cauca. The terms of references for this project have been provided by the Bank of Best Practices to Overcome the Conflict established and maintained by the United Nations Development Program. The cases examined included the returning of the displaced persons to the places of their permanent residence, the fomenting of peace culture and the strengthening of local community, the regional TV channel efforts to disseminate relevant information, peace education for former rebels, and the promoting of legal agricultural activities in the coffee-producing area. Besides providing an overview of the main features of all of the cases, this report presents a summary of the socio-political and historical context in which these five experiences occur and reflects the lessons and recommendations that can be derived from a comparative analysis of the cases.
