Tensiones y retos sobre la mujer rural y su participación en la construcción de paz en Colombia

Abstract

The rural woman and their dynamics of participation, have been topics tackled in the frame of the studies of the social sciences from the 90s, period in which the public policies showed the relevancy of this population in the production of land. Nevertheless, the recognition of the role that they redeem in the society across the different settings has been undervalued. Today in Colombia, with the signature of the peace agreement, to admit the roll that the woman can fulfill in the rural territory makes sense due to the relevancy of their contribution as reproducer of a society which is reborn, making use of their experiences in the organization and social participation settings. To begin to construct a frame of reference on this subject, we realized a review of national and international investigations published from the year 2006 taking into consideration de existing studies and the state of the knowledge regarding the participation of the rural women in the construction of peace in Colombia.
