Bogota, Colombia
On my recent trip to Colombia, we were informed that there were indigenous tribes occupying The National Park of Bogota protesting the Colombian government. They’ve traveled from their home land to protest because the Unit for Colombian Conflict Victims and the Capital District are no longer providing financial assistance to these communities, which were massively displaced from their territories a year and a half ago. Some indigenous people are waiting for a housing solution in Bogota, while others wish to return to their territories, from which they were displaced because of the armed conflict.
