PEACE LABORATORIES Impacts and experiences
• Strengthening of the civil society• Empowerment of communities• Facilitate dialogues and reconciliation processes• Promote participation of local authorities• Democratic decision-making processes • Deep ties to the land• Interest on the part of illegal armed groups• Participation of the Colombian Government
Lessons learned
• Difficult to attract public investment and participation, to the point of substitution and a parallel state
• Low management response by the government and need to decentralize also the administration
• Social processes with weaknesses in taking roots in the local, national and international economy
• Public policies for peace and local development are weak or inexistent
• Incipient stage of the PDP, regarding capacity and absorption, together wit complexity of procedures cause slowness in implementation and disbursement.
Origin of the III Laboratory
• Necessary experience to nurture peace processes at the local level (third generation laboratory)
• Country Strategy Paper 2002-2006: 24.2 million € from reserve fond
• The development and peace thematic bloc of the international cooperation strategy of the Government – Cartagena
• Complementariness with the action of EU Member States and UNDP
• Co-financing with Government and The World Bank
GEOGRAPHICAL COMPONENT GEOGRAPHICAL COMPONENT method for selection of PDPmethod for selection of PDP
• Comparative study of 9 PDP (Cordepaz, Darién, Mirada al Sur, Montes de Maria, Paz y Competitividad, Sepas, Sierra Nevada, Tolipaz, Vallenpaz)
• Analysis of the regional problematic and potential, and the capacity of the PDP
• 2 workshops with DNP, Redprodepaz, World Bank, UNDP to prioritize the PDP in accordance with the problematic and potential.
• Analysis by Member States
PDP FAVOURABLE DIFFICULTIES

Tolipaz -Zone with 2° value on weighting index (Problematic + Potential)-Support from units of municipal and departmental governments- Medium ICP index-Active USAID presence
-No previous interventions by the EC/increasing geographical dispersion-Programme in consolidation (2 years)-No previous interventions by MMSS
Montes de María
-Zone with 3° value on weighting index (Problematic + Potential)-Previous interventions by the EC en 9 municipalities (HHRR, Desarraigados)- Interventions by other MMSS (Sweden Spain)-Strong interest from national government -Medium ICP index -One credit programme (WB) in operation
-High paramilitary presence /potential cooptation by armed groups.-High level of conflict between illegal groups-Weakness in local government structures (municipal and departmental levels)-Recent programme and in consolidation (1 year)
Sepas -Zone with 4° value on weighting index (Problematic + Potential)-Previous interventions by the EC en 14 municipalities (HHRR, cofinancing of NGO’s)-Interventions by other MMSS (Sweden, Germany)-Possibility to establish a “peace axis” (Norte Santander, Santander, Oriente Antioqueño)-Seniority (funded in 1976)and great operational experience-High level of regional civil society organization (constituent assemblies, cooperatives, social movements) -Strength of local and departmental governments-Medium ICP index
-Geographical dispersion (49 municipalities)

Construction of the Logical Framework
The logical framework was prepared through meetings, workshops and working groups, incorporating a representative selection of institutions, social organizations and grassroots groups in the two regions – Meta and Montes de María (Bolívar, Sucre)
General ObjectiveGeneral Objective
To collectively construct the conditions for durable peace and peaceful coexistence based on a life in dignity and with opportunities for all inhabitants

Economically and environmentally sustainable socioeconomic development has been strengthened in harmony with subregional, endogenous solutions that improve the conditions of equality, trust and security of the population involved in the Laboratory
Results - Thematic Component
Ethnic Groups:Endogenous forms of governance, autonomy and culture of ethnic peoples have been strengthened to overcome their vulnerability to the risks associated with the conflict, and to increase their negotiation capacity at different territorial levels on the base of their own development plans (planes de vida), strengthening their participation in civil society activities aiming at promoting peace
Results - Women, Youth and other peace initiatives
Organizations of women, youth and other peace initiatives have been mobilized, made visible and strengthened, guaranteeing their participation, articulation and interlocutory to influence public policies and spaces at local, regional y national levels, thus guaranteeing their rights and confronting their vulnerability in front of the risks associated with the conflict
