Amicus curiae in writ for the protection of fundamental rights that seeks to ensure the right to mental health of victims of forced displacementEnero 28 of 2010


Defendant: Ministerio de Protección Social


Dejusticia supports the claims of the writ for the protection of fundamental rights directed to ensuring the right to health of four women who have not received comprehensive care for the serious mental and emotional disorders following their forced displacement by violence of the armed conflict. In support of the writ, Dejusticia argues that the violation of rights in this case is due to structural failure of public policy on forced displacement because there are no mechanisms to ensure that victims receive comprehensive, relevant, and permanent psychosocial care.
