Sumario: |
With approximately four million affected people, forced displacement is
nowadays one of the largest social problems Colombian society must face.
About half of these four million are women. This article uses various studies
carried out in the last years at the Psychology Department of the Universidad del Norte (Barranquilla) based on qualitative methodology (8 focal groups with displaced women) as a starting point. As a result of these studies it is concluded that the experience of displacement is clearly marked by a route that includes the following episodes: a) yearning for country life; b) the untimely arrival of violence and the decision to escape; c) life in the city of acceptance, and d) hope in the future. |
