Description
The framework of the Peace Accords between the Colombian government and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) is aimed at establishing “stable and lasting” peace. The challenges and issues to implementing this process are great, however; especially in regard to the daily implementation of it by citizens. This course seeks to provide students with the educational tools for developing the skills that can be used to build a culture of peace in specific contexts (local, regional, professional, etc.). It will offer these tools under the guiding lens of the ideas and discussions surrounding the following topics: armed conflict, transitional justice, historical memory, and regional peace, among other issues.
