Dialogues for Non-Repetition
In response to the assassination of social leaders in Colombia, the Truth Commission, which seeks to lay the foundations so that armed conflicts and human rights violations do not continue or reoccur in the country, created the "dialogues for non-repetition", which took place in various cities and also, as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic, online. Participants included representatives of government agencies, members of political parties, citizens, businessmen and representatives of business associations, social organizations and leaders, religious authorities, heads of private and public universities and directors of the media. The dialogues sought to examine in depth why such human rights violations occur in the Colombian society, and to discuss what the State and society must do to overcome this situation and to ensure that such events do not occur again.
