General Description
The Peace Agreement is an opportunity to advance in reconciliation and structural transformation of the countryside.

It is the occasion for women to access the fulfillment of their rights, participate effectively and with equity, being recognized and valued in the transformation that Colombia and Putumayo require. |

Contribution to the Peace Accourds
This project contributes particularly to Point 1 of the Peace Agreement: "Towards a New Colombian Countryside: Comprehensive Rural Reform" (RRI) and aligns with the more than 100 measures that incorporate the gender approach proposed in the Peace Agreement that benefits about 5 million rural women (10% of the country's population). It is in accordance with the priorities of the European Fund for Peace, to support a comprehensive rural policy and stimulate economic activity and productivity in remote rural areas, with topics such as economic initiatives, rural credit, improved trade, and women empowerment; and in reinforcing the presence of the State, reconstructing the social fabric in remote and conflictive regions through creating capacities in local leaders and institutions, reinforcing citizen participation in democratic processes, with the creation of a culture free of gender violence, with gender equality, and with the participation of women. |
