CASTRO, XIMENA  e  MUNEVAR-ROJAS, MARGARITA. Listening to the Victims of the Colombian Armed Conflict: The Experience of a Mechanism for Psychosocial Attention. CS [online]. 2018, n.25, pp.81-109. ISSN 2011-0324.  https://doi.org/10.18046/recs.i25.2696.

The recognition on the part of the Colombian state of the necessity of establishing mechanisms for the full compensation of the victims of the armed conflict has resulted in proposals of psychosocial rehabilitation aimed at mitigating the lasting mental effects caused by violent events. This article presents the experience of one instrument of psychosocial attention with the aim of contributing to the reflection about the necessity and the effectiveness of the proposed interventions. It presents the cases of three female victims and analyses them, taking three categories into account: the subjective implications of social recognition of the «victim», the psychological development of the traumatic event, and the scope of the process of psychotherapeutic intervention. It arrives at conclusions about the importance of maintaining attentive listening to the individual coordinates of each subject-victim; avoiding the assumption that the long-term effects of victimizing events can be generalized; and of the necessity of strengthening the networking between institutions and healthcare services.
