Abstract
PACHECO-SAENZ, Juan David and QUIJANO-MEJIA, Claudia. COLLECTIVE REPAIR IMPULSE COMMITTEES AND THEIR GROUP DYNAMICS. CIÉNAGA DEL OPÓN CASES AND POPULAR FEMALE ORGANIZATION. Rev. eleuthera [online]. 2019, vol.21, pp.106-125. ISSN 2011-4532. https://doi.org/10.17151/eleu.2019.21.7.
Objective.
To understand the group dynamics of the impulse committees of Ciénaga del Opón and the Popular Females Organization (PFO) and their repercussion in the reparation process, trying to identify the aspects in which the Social Work professional should intervene.
Methodology.
Qualitative research, including semi-structured interviews with community leaders, workshops with members of the impulse committees and non-participant observation.
Results.
The great differences between a community-based promotion committee (Ciénaga del Opón) and one based on an organization (OFP) are highlighted in terms of leadership, role distribution, group cohesion, communication among its members, planning of activities and confrontation of conflicts.
Conclusion.
The intervention of Social Work in community based impulse committees becomes a challenge insofar as they represent communities fragmented by the war that today must be organized to demand their rights before the State.
Keywords : committees of impulse; collective reparation; group dynamics; social work with groups.
