Même si le conflit armé en Colombie, qui s’est étalé sur six décennies, s’est principalement concentré dans les zones rurales, ses effets se sont fait sentir dans tout le pays. L'impact du conflit a approfondi et élargi les écarts entre les régions, affectant la jouissance effective des droits, l'accès aux biens et services publics (infrastructures, développement social, soins de santé, promotion de l'entrepreneuriat, opportunités de production et d'emploi), et l'accès à des services adéquats. utilisation des ressources naturelles. L'accord de paix entre le gouvernement colombien et les FARC vise à mettre fin à un demi-siècle de confrontation armée et à promouvoir des éléments qui renforcent la démocratie, améliorent les zones rurales et garantissent les droits et le respect de la vie de tous les Colombiens.
