INSTITUTE FOR INTEGRATEDTRANSITIONS

Objet publié

This project aims to strengthen the implementation of Colombia's "Territorial-focused Development Plans" (known as PDETs in Spanish). The project does this by supporting the combined work of “Territorial Trust,” a sub-national network of peace implementation actors in PDET regions. And the Colombian Brain Trust, a network of experts who played a direct and significant role in the Colombian peace negotiations in Havana. Together, the Brain and Territorial Trusts provide analysis, policy advice, and recommendations to policy-makers on peace implementation, emphasizing PDET implementation. Project activities include: (1) holding sessions with the Brain and Territorial Trusts that serve to identify, debate and analyze challenges and solutions; formulating policy recommendations, and defining engagement strategies aimed at catalyzing PDET implementation; (2) conducting workshops aimed at building knowledge on lessons learned from different conflict contexts; (3) preparing and distributing policy analyses on risks and opportunities for peace implementation in Colombia; and (4) conducting public outreach with broader audiences, including actors with different political views or technical interpretations of the Peace Agreement’s implementation.
