Abstract

The research process has the objective of understanding the possible contributions of transitional justice on curricular construction in peace education in the Colombian context, from the points of view of teachers, educational policy makers and experts in this type of justice. To this end, a research problem is posed, where the implementation of transitional justice in Colombia is examined, focusing on its historical evolution from the armed conflict to the recent peace agreements. Consequently, all this allows us to explore the legal and regulatory framework that has allowed the implementation and the mechanisms created within the framework of transitional justice. In this order of ideas, this research investigates the integration of the peace class in the Colombian school curriculum, as a key educational instrument for reconciliation and the construction of a culture of peace. For this reason, the importance of addressing transitional justice as a cross-cutting issue that promotes critical reflection on the history and social development of the country is highlighted. In accordance with the above, it is adopted to employ a qualitative approach, whose methodological strategy includes the use of semi-structured interviews as the main tool, designed to facilitate deep and meaningful communication. In this way, participants can freely express their views and experiences. Likewise, the relationship between transitional justice and peace education in Colombia is addressed, emphasizing the importance of an educational curriculum that promotes critical thinking, democratic participation and ethical commitment to peace. Finally, the need to address the causes of conflict, state responsibility and the promotion of reconciliation through education is highlighted. In this sense, it is proposed to develop a comprehensive curriculum that responds to the needs of the historical, social, cultural and political context, which encourages empathy and understanding of the rights of others to form active citizens in the construction of a just and fair society. peaceful.
