Abstract
BARRETO HENRIQUES, MIGUEL. PREPARING FOR POST-CONFLICT IN COLOMBIA FROM DEVELOPMENT AND PEACE PROGRAMS: CHALLENGES AND LEARNED LESSONS FOR INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AND COMPANIES. rev.relac.int.estrateg.segur. [online]. 2014, vol.9, n.1, pp.179-197. ISSN 1909-3063.
This article aims to underline that a potential post-conflict scenario in Colombia holds profound political, social and economic challenges. After the signing of a political agreement with the guerrilla, the country will face a complicated and demanding process of peace-building aiming to generate a sustainable and everlasting peace. This process requires the participation of broad sectors of Colombian society and that the agreements are implemented in the regions and communities who experienced decades of violence. In this context, the objective if this paper is, firstly, to highlight the potential of the Peace and Development Programs (PDP), as consolidated regional models of peace-building put in practice by civil society; and, secondly, to analyze how international aid and enterprises could support these initiatives in a new national political context, taking into account lessons learnt from the previous experience of alliance and collaboration with the PDP.
Keywords : Development aid; Development and Peace program (PDP); peace-building; postconflict.
