Abstract

OSPINA-RAMIREZ, David Arturo; LOPEZ-GONZALEZ, Sergio; BURGOS-LAITON, Sandra Bibiana  and  MADERA-RUIZ, José Alejandro. Peace between urban and rural settings: children’s conceptions of peace for the post-conflict stage in Colombia. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2018, vol.16, n.2, pp.943-960. ISSN 1692-715X.  https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.16220.

This article highlights the results of a study that sought to identify the conceptions that the children of Caldas and Cauca have of peace in the post-conflict context in Colombia. The research used a qualitative methodology with comprehensive hermeneutical orientation based on a case study and the categorical analysis of narratives and graphic images and written texts produced the participants. The research was carried out with 30 children in the city of Manizales and 30 children in rural areas in Popayán. The study identified that rural children believe that the Peace Agreement will generate development for their communities and means that armed groups will not harm their communities again. Children in urban areas initially expressed certain attitudes and fear in thinking that demobilized persons from armed groups could live their communities, they also showed willingness to welcome these people and teach them new ways to build peace.
