#LABICxlaPAZ (Civic Innovation Lab for Peace)

The Laboratory of Civic Innovation for Peace and the Post-Conflict ?#LABICxlaPAZ? is a space for participation promoted by several national government entities and international organizations with the aim of designing and implementing projects that will provide a rapid response to post-conflict challenges, especially in the region of Nariño, one of the most affected areas by the war. This platform foresees that 10 projects will be carried out in different thematic areas: technology, good living, virtual education, irrigation systems, the right to water, and agriculture, among others. The call is open, however the laboratory will have reserved spaces for residents of Nariño, and only 99 collaborators will be selected to participate in this initiative. #LABICxlaPaz is part of a series of innovation laboratories that have been carried out in different Latin American cities such as Veracruz, Rio de Janeiro and Cartagena.
