FONSECA-PESO, Janire; NAVARRO-LASHAYAS, Miguel Ángel y MORO-INCHAURTIETA, Álvaro. Urban culture and psycho-socio-educational accompaniment in Medellín: from gang members to community leaders. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2022, vol.20, n.2, pp.325-350. Epub 14-Sep-2022. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/rlcsnj.20.2.4739.
The aim of this article is to analyse the life trajectories of displaced young people in a community in Medellin. Through psycho-socio-educational accompaniment, the stories go from "being a kid in a gang" to becoming community reference points, especially in the area of childhood safety, through participating in and generating urban culture. Fieldwork was carried out using a qualitative methodology through the biographical-narrative technique, collecting information through five in-depth interviews, timelines and participant observation. The conclusions identify a group of young people who were “lost” in the context of their neighborhood and whose changes began with psycho-socio-educational accompaniment. This allowed them to discover their potential through dance and take control of their lives, resulting in them transcending the individual sphere and trying to influence their community.
