CREDHOS has posted on Facebook:
“We accompanied FEDEPESAN [the Federation of Artisanal Fishermen of Santander] in their reception of students from the Faculty of Sociology of the National University. Together with them, we toured the Rosario and San Silvestre streams, and one of the areas impacted by the forest fires in March in the District of Barrancabermeja.
In this space, artisanal fisherwomen and fishermen shared their organisational experience in defence of their natural assets and trades in the face of environmental degradation caused by extractive activities in the region.

It appears that the students have been in the area for a few days.
CREDHOS tweet: “We received a visit from students from the Faculty of Sociology of the National University of Colombia, with whom we shared the territorial dynamics of the Magdalena Medio region.”
PBI-Colombia has accompanied the Regional Corporation in the Defence of Human Rights (CREDHOS) since 1994.
