ARANGO TOBON, Mauricio Alexander  e  ARROYAVE ALVAREZ, Orlando. Social Cohesion Process in Dabeiba and Nariño, two Returned Municipalities, in Antioquia, Colombia. CES Psicol [online]. 2017, vol.10, n.2, pp.86-102. ISSN 2011-3080.  https://doi.org/10.21615/cesp.10.2.6.

Forced displacement has negative effects on people's life, their families and community networks. In this sense, this research analyzes two returning experiences of people who have being subjected to forced displacement, one in the municipality of Dabeiba and the other one in the municipality of Nariño, both located in Antioquia, Colombia. The objective of this research is to explore, from a psychosocial perspective, issues like social cohesion and community building. To this end, focal groups and semi-structured interviews were conducted to the community members, and data collection was analyzed from the symbolic interactionism approach. This study concludes that communities that return to their residential areas after forced displacement, requires interdisciplinary, systematic and articulated assistance that make possible social autonomy processes, as well as adequate spaces to enhance their capacity for collective work and leadership. In addition, there was a need to carry out differential proposals within the framework of return and / or relocation policies, for specific groups who have been victims of forced displacement, such as children, women and elderly people.
