Description and results
Description
This project strengthens the capacity of the Government of Colombia to deliver protection and compensation services to victims of armed conflict, particularly children and youth. It benefits 84,000 children and youth and 56,000 women in three conflict-affected municipalities in Colombia’s Pacific Coast: Buenaventura,Tumaco and Quibdó. The project trains 1,640 national and local government officials to deliver protection and compensation services, via a community outreach strategy that ensures that social services are inclusive and accessible for hard-to-reach beneficiaries. It trains youth networks, community leaders, and community-based organizations to participate in municipal planning. It trains youth in entrepreneurship, peacebuilding, life skills and community leadership. This project is implemented by Plan Canada.
Expected results
