Colombian and American universities, together with several non-governmental organizations released ten lessons they think should be learned from the 1999 – 2002 peace talks that ended unsuccessfully exactly ten years ago on Monday.
The Washington-based Center for Latin American Studies of Georgetown University, Bogota’s Los Andes University, the United States Institute of Peace and Colombian Jesuit Research Institute CINEP published the lessons in “10 Years After Caguán: Some lessons to Help Attain Peace.”
Because the publication has only been released in Spanish, Colombia Reports took the liberty to attempt to translate the lessons learned by the study group.
