Colombia: The Calamity of Displaced People.

Tuesday, 05 January 2010 23:45
 

July 2009. On Sunday I visited the Tercer Milenio Park; the area only a few blocks away from the President’s palace that internally displaced people occupied in protest in Bogota. Since mid-March, about 2,000 people (one third minors) live here in fragile huts made of nylon and pieces of wood. By occupying the public sphere they intended to make visible the drama of more then 4 million of forcibly displaced people; victims of a prolonged internal conflict and of political violence.
