ARIZA-SOSA, Gladys Rocío et al. The emergency humanitarian crisis in Colombia due to violence against women during the COVID-19 pandemic. Rev. Fac. Derecho Cienc. Polit. - Univ. Pontif. Bolivar. [online]. 2021, vol.51, n.134, pp.125-150.  Epub 28-Dic-2021. ISSN 0120-3886.  https://doi.org/10.18566/rfdcp.v51n134.a06.

Violence against women in 2020 has increased during lockdown from the COVID-19 pandemic. We present a narrative review article to analyze why it is appropriate to declare the humanitarian crisis of emergency in Colombia due to violence against women during the pandemic. We reviewed systematic searches in databases. Violence against women, in this contingency, has had consequences from the social and family, to the psychological, the latter more visible with the increase in anxiety, depression, the feeling of guilt, and suicides. In the pandemic context, the Colombian government has issued regulations that seek to reinforce obligations incorporated into the national legal system. However, structural barriers and gender gaps continue to hinder Colombian women's free access to justice. It prevents the full guarantee of their human rights. Violence against women in Colombia, in 2020, configures as a humanitarian crisis due to its inadequate attention and the growing number of cases.

Palabras clave : Violence against women; coronavirus infections; Colombia pandemics (DCS descriptors); Political crisis (UNESCO descriptor).
