During four days, the implementation of "Projecting us" strategy developed by the Victims Unit with adolescent victims of armed conflict residing in that city was carried out in Barrancabermeja, Santander.

According to Amparo Chicué Cristancho, territorial director of the Unit in Magdalena Medio, with this strategy "from the Psychosocial Group of the entity what we do is contribute to the fulfillment of two comprehensive reparation measures that are satisfaction and guarantees of non-repetition".

In the same way, the official assured that last month she did the pilot and this week the two psychosocial professionals of this territorial direction (Iliana Ruiz and Álix Aguilar), worked virtually, for four days, with two groups, each of 10 young people for a total of 40 teenagers.

For the 11th and 14th of August, and the 18th and 21st of the same month, new “Projecting us” days are planned with other young victims who live in Barrancabermeja.
