El ejercicio de la participación política desde las experiencias de tres mujeres líderes de la Mesa de Participación Efectiva para las Víctimas en la localidad de Suba

Abstract

The research is developed around the political participation of women leaders in Colombia, specifically those who are part of the Victims Effective Participation Boards in the Suba area, Bogotá. Through in-depth interviews and content analysis, the challenges and achievements of these leaders in the construction of public policies are explored. Their role in the reconstruction of the social fabric in communities affected by the armed conflict is highlighted, as well as their struggle against gender discrimination and violence. Obstacles to the consolidation and visibility of their work are identified, such as the need to join efforts to protect and recognize female leaders, factors that affect the political participation of victims, as well as inconsistencies between discourse and practice.
