The Colombian student body and the commitment to co-governance and university autonomy (1971-1972): a retrospective analysis based on the Córdoba Manifesto. Hallazgos [online]. 2021, vol.18, n.35, pp.343-370.  Epub 01-Jan-2021. ISSN 1794-3841.  https://doi.org/10.15332/2422409x.4438.

This article traces the evolution of the Colombian student movement, which derives from Latin American students’ feeling for university autonomy. The Colombian student body directs its collective action towards the search for spaces of participation in the decision-making process of the public university, until achieving the implementation of co-governance in the National University of Colombia, the University of Antioquia and the Industrial University of Santander. The Córdoba Manifesto is the road map for understanding the desire of young Colombians to implement new forms of government that will allow them to experience an autonomous, free and democratic university. The implementation of university governance in Colombia, as a consequence of the Cordoba Reform, is the central topic of this article. To this end, in two sections the article allows for reflection on the Cordoba Reform and its influence on the Colombian student movement, which was radicalized in the 1970s. This reflection is obtained after consulting documents and newspapers of the time, as well as recent written historiography, elements that allow us to trace the inflections and the transcendence of the Colombian student movement on a Latin American scale.
