Everything You Need to Know About the Colombian Peace Process
Por: César Rodríguez-Garavito (Retired in 2019) | September 22, 2017
Who are the parties to the Colombian conflict that made it a complex war that endured for more than five decades? What made possible the signing of a peace accord between the Colombian government and the guerilla group FARC in 2016, and its eventual rejection in a national referendum? What are the politics behind the accord and how will it affect its implementation process, especially as the Colombian people elect a new president in 2018?
César Rodríguez Garavito, Executive Director of Dejusticia, gives a crash course on these complex aspects of the Colombian transition to peace in this talk at the American University of Beirut sponsored by The Legal Agenda and Issam Fares Institute.
