Abstract

The text addresses the complexity of the current situation in Colombia, a country at a critical moment of social and political change after more than half a century of armed conflict. The signing of the peace agreement with the FARC-EP in 2016 is highlighted as a crucial milestone, although not without challenges, including the reintegration of ex- combatants and the security of the signatories. The creation of the Commission for the Clarification of the Truth, Coexistence and Non-Repetition is mentioned as an attempt to tell the complete story of the conflict and its victims, facing political obstacles such as the position of President Iván Duque.

The text also focuses on the importance of education for peaceful coexistence, especially in educational communities. It highlights the need to review and update school curricula to include a more complete and contextualized history of Colombia, from its history of violence to its fight for peace. Additionally, it

addresses the importance of challenging social norms that perpetuate violence and conflict, such as gender stereotypes and harassment.

It is suggested that truth and justice are imperative for coexistence and that society must strive to search for the truth through different mechanisms such as coexistence committees and programs like Hermes. In addition, creativity and literature are pointed out as ways to redefine the past and build new stories of coexistence. The text offers a multifaceted analysis of social and political change in Colombia, highlighting the complexity of going from a state of prolonged conflict to a more peaceful and equitable situation. It proposes a series of strategies and approaches to address these challenges, from the educational system to public participation and truth and justice as pillars for coexistence.
