  1. “I reiterate with all my heart that Caldono, the Department of Cauca and my beloved country, Colombia, are all full of good people — fighters and dreamers who work tirelessly to build a peaceful country — and we hope to continue to have the support of the Council and the international community as we work to realize this great dream. From the womb of Mother Nature and Mother Earth and from all that our life-giving womb represents, we will keep weaving resistance, joy, sisterhood and solidarity together to continue to build peace, not just for Colombia but for the world. From the town of Caldono, I extend a grateful embrace.”

  2. “The monitoring of the different approaches is crucial, taking into account that multiple axes drive progress in efforts to comply with implementation of the agreement, and, accordingly, they depend on a large number of decentralized entities, including departmental, municipal and local authorities, as well as the allocation of the necessary technical and financial resources. This also implies an inter-institutional coordination effort that must be strengthened to make progress in the rural victim population’s — and particularly the rural ethnic population’s — effective enjoyment of their human rights from the same multidimensional perspective, which allows communities to continue to be strengthened and ensures a peaceful country for new generations. I am grateful to the Security Council for inviting me to be present in this space.”

  3. “For this change to occur, it is important to continue supporting productive and economic empowerment projects for women; generate spaces and guarantees of education for women that reduce gender inequalities and ensure progress in the rights of rural women, building on programmes where the specific needs and rights of women are included; guarantee progress in creating scenarios for women’s political participation and improve the protection and security situation for women leaders and human rights defenders; provide guarantees for the reincorporation of peace signatories, particularly women; make progress on a community- reincorporation approach that allows us to structure civil society and reincorporation personnel; keep people who were victimized on the basis of their gender or ethnicity at the centre of the follow-up on the recommendations contained in the Truth Commission’s final report, keeping in mind that we are a major part of the victims of the armed conflict; and safeguard transitional justice’s approach to sexual violence in order to repair and transform our lives and our territories.”

  4. “In the context of our goal of creating spaces for women and promoting their leadership in our regions, that caused concern and worry among our families, affecting women directly as leaders in their communities, mothers, wives, sisters, which means that they experience these effects more intensely, which shows that there is a need to work harder to defend rights, security and peace for our women. We are aware of the engagement of this Government and of the different entities, and we wish to call on the country to set its eyes on these lands, so that we can work as a team and achieve the creation of better conditions for living with dignity through the comprehensive implementation of the peace agreement, in particular its gender provisions and the ethnic chapter.”

  5. “Those included support in the area of health care, including sexual and reproductive health care for women, with, inter alia, an increase in the resources allocated to women, and efforts to make more visible the fact that in order for families to thrive, women must have decent homes for them and their families. That is particularly true for women that have been affected by the armed conflict and those who are heads of household. Unfortunately, as part of the journey that we have completed in the last few years, 42 young people have been killed, including authorities and social leaders, and an average of 82 young people between the ages of 12 and 22 have been recruited by illegal armed groups unknown in our territories.”

  6. “We also had members of the international community visit our town because we were the second most heavily affected by the armed conflict — a community that for 40 years was stigmatized, isolated and excluded by institutional frameworks, a community that was denied the opportunity to shine and to draw attention to its richness and to all its capacities. For us and the country, it was of utmost importance to strategically plan cross-cutting policies that allowed for integral land reform, such as programmes with a territorial focus, within which long-term decisions were taken such as the development of a road map for each of the 16 regions involved.”

  7. “Caldono has a great deal of experience with the transformation that can take place with the laying down of arms and the integration of former combatants into civil society, as two territorial areas for training and reintegration were established in our town. That was a deeply significant action that made it possible to rebuild emotions, lives, spaces and homes that had been torn apart and abandoned as a result of the armed conflict. After the signing of the agreement, forums were revitalized, with the help of the community and people in the context of a process of reintegration, thus creating bonds of friendship and renewed trust.”

  8. “In my experience as a community leader over the past 11 years, I have made efforts devoted to protecting human rights and the economic empowerment of women and to promoting and strengthening the political participation of women in decision-making arenas, thus making it possible to create spaces that allow equality between women and men and spaces leading to the building of peace. When negotiations on the Final Agreement for Ending the Conflict and Building a Stable and Lasting Peace were announced, it was a relief, a cry of hope and an act of rebirth, a new feeling that arose from the depths of the souls of women and life-giving families, who dreamed of dawns full of light and hope and of warm and calm evenings around the hearth accompanied by wise words from the elders.”

  9. “As a leader of indigenous women in the Cauca department, today I wish to extend to the Council fraternal greetings, greetings of resistance, unity and strength. I place the life of each and every one present in the hands of Mother Nature, as well as all delegations, the Mission of Brazil to the United Nations, our Vice-President, Marta Lucía Ramírez, with particular greetings to Mr. Juan Carlos Vargas, all of whom gave our municipalities that experienced armed conflict the opportunity to have a country that has now embarked upon the journey to peace. My name is Jineth Casso Piamba, an indigenous woman from San Lorenzo de Caldono.”
