SPREAD AWARENESS FOR CHANGE
Our research aims to ensure that individuals are informed about the issues that Colombia faces, and help spread the message among their communities that violence will not be tolerated.
Why We Do It
We openly share our findings to give outsiders a clear understanding of the root causes of violence affecting Colombia.
This knowledge allows individuals to make meaningful impacts within their own communities. Beginning with the simple yet powerful act of rejecting violence—a step that every citizen can take.
"The first step of conflict resolution is identifying the source of the conflict."
