Social Representations of the Armed Conflict in Colombia in Adolescents of the Province of Soto Norte, Santander. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2021, vol.21, n.2, pp.562-574.  Epub June 16, 2022.

The social representations of the armed conflict present in the adolescents of the Province of Soto Norte, Santander, are exposed, from the qualitative approach. Three categories were identified, namely: “Opinion and assessment of the Colombian Internal Armed Conflict [CAIC]”, “Origin of the opinion” and “Background of the CAIC in Soto Norte.” It is concluded that social representations are mediated by the information that they have obtained about the armed phenomenon in different contexts, and that such information is unfounded. Therefore, the generation of psychoeducational spaces, which respond to the need to build peace, from the regions, is suggested.
