28 municipalities will reach resources to support productive projects
With 10 inter-administrative agreements, the Victims' Unit and territorial entities committed themselves to support survivors of conflict.
With the signing of 10 inter-administrative agreements with 28 territorial entities, the Victims Unit will provide more resources to support productive projects of survivors in the country. These are added to another 12 that had been signed at the end of September.
Mayors of the departments of Nariño, Cauca, Boyacá, Santander, Antioquia, Bolívar, Sucre, Arauca and Chocó were present at the address of the Victims Unit, in Bogotá, to seal these agreements whose execution will be carried out in what remains of the year.
The Governor of Arauca, Ricardo Alvarado, highlighted the joint work that, in his department, will benefit 963 people in the municipalities of Arauca, Arauquita and Puerto Rondón.
There the Unit will invest 2,000 million pesos and the Government will contribute 1000 more, which will be used to strengthen agroforestry, leather goods, bakery and dressmaking activities, among others.
For Alvarado, the value of these agreements is that they allow the strengthening of the associative capacity of victims, to whom it provides the opportunity to get out of the condition of vulnerability by marketing their products.
The beneficiaries will receive resources, training and psychosocial assistance.
