Construction of the Regional Victim Assistance Center resumed in Pasto
The Victims Unit invests more than 2.500 million in the construction and provision of this new space that will improve the quality of care for victims in this region of the country.
In compliance with biosecurity protocols, they restarted the works of the Regional Center for Attention to Victims of Pasto, which aims to bring together in a single physical space the entire offer of the National System of Comprehensive Care and Reparation for Victims (SNARIV) to guarantee citizen care to the victim population with a differential approach, a rights approach and a psychosocial approach through respect for quality standards, dignified treatment, prompt and respectful care.
For the mayor of Pasto, Germán Chamorro, who visited the project, "as the municipal Administration we will put all our commitment so that the work is carried out within the proposed schedule". "Our commitment is to advance and deliver this site as soon as possible, which will be of great impact for victims of armed conflict. I thank the Unit, for the articulation and for joining efforts to this end” added the president of the capital of Nariño.
The work, which has a cost of $ 3.000 million, of which the Victims Unit contributes $2.523 million and $484 million to the Mayor's Office, seeks not only to cover the needs of those affected by the armed conflict, inhabitants of Pasto, but of those nearby municipalities and in general of the entire department.
For his part, William Pinzón Fernández, territorial director of the Unit in Nariño, said that “it is very important to know that despite the inconveniences presented due to the pandemic, we can now show that work continues so that, at the end of this year, the victims of Pasto have a decent space for quality care; We will carry out the respective follow-up and continue to work hand in hand with the municipal mayor's office”
The new Regional Center, which will be located in CAM Anganoy, via Los Rosales 2, will have an area of 927 m2, which will allow all the entities that are part of the SNARIV to have a space in this place and thus the victims can carry out in the same site all its procedures.
