GIRALDO, Claudia Irene. Co-responsibility as a "Conditioned" Principle to Reach an Agreement on the Wished-for Society. rev.colomb.psiquiatr. [online]. 2009, vol.38, suppl.1, pp.195-203. ISSN 0034-7450.

Introduction: The social situation of the Colombian population in general, and the children in particular, is compromised. The permanent infringement of rights such as health, education, protection, especially regarding the children, is evident and entails important challenges for the Colombian Government and its institutions. Objective: To reflect about children’s rights and implications that making them effective has for our country. Method: Analysis and formulation of social policies, aimed at promoting and facilitating the compliance with the coresponsibility principle, which entails the participation of the family as the key setting for the children’s protection and development, in alliance with the Government and its Institutions, and based upon principles of solidarity, redistribution and equity. Conclusion: It is necessary to consider a desirable economic and political model that may benefit the children in our country, i.e., to reach an agreement regarding the society that we wish to have.
