ASCANIO-MANTILLA, Nataly Juliana  and  PEREZ-HERNANDEZ, Jesús Daniel. Citizen Participation in Mining Activities in Colombia. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2022, vol.22, n.1, pp.84-97.  Epub Nov 01, 2022. ISSN 1657-8031.  https://doi.org/10.21500/16578031.5025.

The purpose of this research article is to analyze the legal and democratic development that has represented, in recent years, for Colombia a mechanism of citizen participation, such as the popular consultation, in mining activities through which the exploration and exploitation of natural resources lying in the subsoil is allowed. The research was developed based on the Qualitative Method, by applying the traditional methods of interpretation, which allowed the analysis of the pronouncements made by the Constitutional Court.

Keywords : Popular Consultation; Mining Activities; Autonomy; Territorial Entities; Mining Concessions; and Citizen Participation Mechanism.
