With resources from the World Food Program and the accompaniment of the Victims Unit, the most vulnerable families in Caquetá received markets, most of them survivors of the armed conflict.

Three thousand people - members of 738 families - have received food vouchers in nine municipalities of Caquetá, through an agreement between the Victims Unit and the World Food Program of the United Nations Organization.

The bonus consists of five grocery baskets which are delivered one per month, with which the Unit and the cooperating organization contribute to guarantee the right to subsistence food of the most vulnerable population of the department, which are mostly survivors of armed conflict.

The aid began to be delivered three months ago in nine municipalities of Caquetá, including Florencia, its capital. The goal for 2019 is to reach the 16 municipalities that make up the department.

Rubiela Sarmiento, one of the beneficiaries, expressed gratitude "for this help made by the World Program and the Colombian State to many families that really need it, and thus improve the living conditions of many people who are poor and also victims of armed conflict".

The Unit also makes other efforts to help improve the living conditions of these families and ensure their survival in the medium and long term. Lucrecia Murcia Lozada, territorial director of the entity in Caquetá and Huila, stressed that this program is also articulated with the National Service of Learning (SENA) for survivors can be trained in productive projects, especially in urban agriculture.

Official Lozada explained: "the goal is that these families from different municipalities of Caquetá sow in their yards or lots, some trees or fruit plants, vegetables or aromatic so that, in addition to personal use, they can market them. We are going to carry out a follow-up and support to the families that have the home garden for consumption and commercialization ".
