The long-running armed conflict in Colombia continues to cause forced displacement, landmine contamination, sexual violence and the recruitment of children and adolescents by non-state armed groups. Colombia's propensity for natural disasters combines with armed violence events to create double vulnerability for much of the population.
For the past three years nearly 200,000 people were displaced every year in Colombia. While consolidated data for 2015 is not yet available, about 32,000 IDPs have been officially registered between January and August.1 OCHA estimates this figure may reach 193,000 by the end of the year. During peace negotiations with the FARC-EP,a about 17,000 people were displaced every month.
Colombia continues to be the world’s second most affected country by antipersonnel mines and explosive remnants of war (ERW).3 APM/UXO have been often used by non-state armed groups to hamper military operations and to secure coca crops. The risk of landmine accidents remains high in large areas of the country. Between January and August 2015, 181 victims were registered in 15 departments, 31 per cent were civilians.4
AMAZONAS
Affected by protests and strikes
Constraints to the free movement of civilians and to their access to basic services are widespread in rural and urbanareas affected by the armed conflict. Restrictions are increasingly caused by mechanisms of social control put in place by non-state armed groups, PDAGd and local armed structures. Natural disasters, geographical conditions or blockades in the framework of social protests, are also causes of access constraints.
