The Victims Unit and the Fundación Saldarriaga Concha joined efforts to work with older people who are victims of the internal armed conflict.

Around 850 million pesos will be invested by the Victims Unit and the Fundación Saldarriaga Concha for its joint work in 2016. They will benefit older persons who are victims of the internal armed conflict.

Fundación Saldarriaga Concha is known in Colombia for its projects and processes that contribute to cultural transformation based on respect, solidarity, and social inclusion.

It worked with the Victims Unit to elaborate methodologies for the meetings known as ‘Palabras Mayores’, advisory workshops, and interviews during the ‘Memorias Reparadoras’ meetings.

‘This year, we hope that this agreement strengthen our strategies in terms of communication of the reparation route, meetings, announcements, and training in the national territory,’ said María del Pilar Zuluaga, from the Victims Unit.
