GUERRERO-LOPEZ, Lady. Participation of the Military Forces of Colombia in peacekeeping operations 2019-2023. Rev. Cient. Gen. José María Córdova [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.25, pp.5-24.  Epub 05-Nov-2019. ISSN 1900-6586.  https://doi.org/10.21830/19006586.355.

Over more than 50 years of armed conflict, the Colombian Military Forces have obtained relevant experience in understanding the dynamics of violence and the factors that intensify conflict. Thus, in a new post-conflict scenario, the objective emerges to internationalize the capabilities of the Armed Forces through their participation in peacekeeping operations (PKO), making the evaluation relevant of the prospective advantages and disadvantages of this participation between 2019 and 2023. To this end, a conceptual framework on the military role in this field was developed, the main capabilities of the Military Forces were defined, according to the Military Strategic Plan 2030, and the scenarios of interest at the international level were identified (prioritizing those of irregular conflict). Lastly, the factors that can increase or decrease the role of the Military Forces in PKO scenarios are evaluated using a prospective methodology.
