Disarmament, Demobilization and Reintegration Programming With Colombia’s Youth

“This paper argues for further recognizing, facilitating, and enhancing the young Colombians’ role in the reconciliation process as well as in guaranteeing the successful, collective, and community-based socio-economic reintegration of FARC ex-combatants. Including Colombian youth as key agents in the reconciliation and reintegration process is particularly relevant in the context of resolution 2250 on Youth, Peace and Security (YPS) adopted in December 2015 by the United Nations Security Council (UNSC), which recognizes “the important role youth can play in the prevention and resolution of conflicts and as a key aspect of the sustainability, inclusiveness, and success of peacekeeping and peacebuilding efforts.” The YPS resolution has been a landmark in changing the long-standing narrative that portrays youth as a security threat to be contained, victims of conflict, or simply passive beneficiaries of post-conflict peacebuilding. It recognizes their potential to be agents of positive change and highlights their own peacebuilding efforts.”

@studentsrebuild Is asking for portraits of people for the Facing the Difference challenge. Each portrait generates up to $600,000 from the Bezos Family Foundation to support programs run by CARE and Search for Common Ground which help youth on different sides of conflict build peace. It was during an event so I decided to do some gesture sketches using crayon. I really liked using a crayon because there was zero pressure from anything. #studentsrebuild #facingdifferencechallenge #studentsrebuild #students #youthempowerment #bezosfoundation #socialgood #searchforcommonground #careorg #makeadifference #globaled #dogood #bridgingdivides #empathy #empatheticaction #peacebuilding #diversity #embracingdifference #art #crayon #sketch #sketches #portraits
