Yolman Osorio, coordinator of the entity's Returns and Relocations Group, indicated that “EAAC are projects formulated from the actions identified within the framework of the approved Return and Relocation Plans, aimed at making the return, relocation and local integration process sustainable and are materialized through the development of initiatives that contribute to adequate access to the components of accompaniment in aspects of income generation, housing, health, education, means of subsistence, social and community infrastructure, among others, which promote community integration and territorial roots in the beneficiary population satisfactorily”.

"Said EEAC supported the improvement of educational infrastructure, improvements of strategic roads with footprint plates, provision of supplies for educational institutions, provision of technological equipment, provision of biomedical and emergency equipment and provision of seeds and agricultural tools to contribute to food security. We also monitor the implementation of the schemes. This support was provided through coordination between the Victims Unit, which provided the supply of materials and the provision of essential elements for its operation, and the territorial entities, which assumed the labor and maintenance costs of said constructions or adjustments”, added the official.
