ICIP, within the framework of its \u201cMemory, coexistence and reconciliation\u201d line of action, aims to address the experiences, tools and opportunities for building peace in societies undergoing transition. The program focuses on the study of the processes of reconciliation and reconstruction of the social fabric; the processes of political, economic, and social transition from a peace perspective; transitional justice tools; public policies and social initiatives that promote coexistence and memory; and the analysis of the rights and needs of victims.<\/p>\n
Specifically, the voice and role of the diasporas as active agents in peacebuilding projects can be a key element in conflict transformation and reconciliation processes in their countries of origin. Thus, the participation of the diaspora in post-conflict settings, through their experiences and narratives, can prove to be a fundamental element for transitional justice processes, for guaranteeing the effective implementation of peace agreements, and for social transformation through a culture of peace.<\/p>\n
In this regard, ICIP has a long history of supporting the Colombian diaspora in Catalonia and Europe, and currently acts as Technical Secretariat in Europe of the Commission for the Clarification of Truth, Coexistence and Non-Recurrence of Colombia. In this capacity, the Institute provides methodological support to the process of taking testimony, coordinates working groups in various European countries, and promotes actions in recognition of the victims.<\/p>\n
ICIP intends to boost the line of action described above and continue exploring the role of diasporas in processes of peace and memory, and in the design of strategies that contribute to coexistence and reconciliation. The fundamental objective is to continue fostering theoretical and practical reflection with the aim of supporting the exchange of various experiences and methodologies among different diasporas, focusing particularly on the role of women.<\/p>\n
With this aim the ICIP opens a call for the production of a report on the potential of diasporas in the field of memory building, dialogue and reconciliation. the general objective is to summarize existing information through a bibliographic review, from various sources, in order to gauge the state of the art and identify the conceptual contributions regarding the role of diasporas in memory building and in processes of dialogue and reconciliation, and to identify actors with experience in this field.<\/p>\n
