Editor's Notes

  1. Massive poverty, militarization in the port city for the residents, while great trade/wealth in the portā€“ it is not being shared. The road from Cali-Buenaventuraā€”strip mining of the Andes and ecological destruction of some of the most beautiful and lush land I have ever seen in Colombia, displacement along this area. A protected area ecologically (whales in the Bahia, rainforest), yet being destroyed. All goods go to Cali, and the Times article alleges that the profits go to the govā€™t not the people.
  2. Yet the communities around the port remain impoverished and also suffering from displacement, and abuses at the hands of various multinationals. We heard many of these stories on our delegation. These are photos from tiny little islands in the Bahia Malaga, off the port of Buenaventuraā€”these islands have intermittent electricity, little running water, and few services. These are communities of Afro-Colombians descended from slaves who fled the slave-trade in Colombia during the late 1800ā€™s and have lived on this land ever since. By the Colombian constitution their lands are protected, but in practice, there is impunity.
  3. Important maps to highlight the displacement of people in Colombia (2010). Note that all the maps are hyperlinked, so when you receive this presentation after the webinar, everything is imbedded if you are interested in more research. This is part of a study done by CODHES (Consulting for Human Rights and Displacement) reviewing the 2009 law of consolidation by President Uribe. Idea to create what are called CCAIā€™s or Consolidated Centers for Integrated Action, to bring the services of the State to outlying areas (and not just the services of the military).
  4. Note that the plan has not reduced the # of illegal armed actors in these areas. And specific note to the North Coast and Pacific Coast (for discussion on were the ministry of the IPC is located and also port of Buenaventura)
  5. These zones where the #ā€™s around displacement by force, illegal armed groups have not gone down also happen to be in the zones where there is either great mineral mining or palm productionā€”exactly the areas the FTA has the most to do with. The FTA just has plans for reductions, but no actual numeric drawn-downs of this need to be shown by the Colombian govā€™t for implementation. As these maps show, it really hasnā€™t gone down yet, why should it now? These are the major concerns of the IPCā€”and especially of the displaced populations, and workers in these areas of trade they work with or who are part of their congregations/communities.
