The implementation of the strategy recognizes that training for work is a key element in processes of comprehensive reparation and peacebuilding, by expanding opportunities to access decent work and generate sustainable incomes.
With a territorial approach, activities are adapted to the social, economic and productive characteristics of each priority municipality, supporting relevant training processes for communities and strengthening local capacities for development.
The strategy also incorporates communication activities that highlight the life stories of participants, showing how training and skills development can become opportunities to transform personal trajectories, promote social and labour inclusion and contribute to peacebuilding in the territories.
Through Formándonos para la Paz, the Ministry of Labour and the ILO reaffirm their commitment to continuing to promote decent work and social justice as tools for expanding training, employment and inclusion opportunities for victims of the armed conflict in Colombia.
