PBI-Colombia has tweeted: “The IACHR [Inter-American Commission on Human Rights] meets with @CAHUCOPANA [the Humanitarian Action Corporation for Coexistence and Peace in Northeast Antioquia] demanding guarantees in response to the prolonged humanitarian crisis suffered by campesino (peasant) communities in Northeast Antioquia.”

This followed a CAHUCOPANA tweet that said: “#IACHRInColombia #MedellinAntioquia. Campesino leader @carlosnordeste [Carlos Morales] expresses the humanitarian crisis that the campesino communities of #RemediosSegoviaAnt are suffering in #HumanRights, to Commissioner Andrea Viviana Pochak, Rapporteur on #HumanMobility of the IACHR.”

Additionally, CAHUCOPANA has posted: “#Barrancabermeja #TerritorialContext #PeaceBrigades. In the facilities of the regional office of Cahucopana in the city of Barrancabermeja, we received the visit of the new brigadistas of Peace Brigades International – Colombia Project where we socialised the territorial context and included the space for the social work interns of the University Institute of Peace to present the characterisation of the sub-regions of Northeast Antioquia and Magdalena Medio, work addressed by the future professionals in their academic practices. We welcome the brigadistas and offer our willingness to walk together for our territory. #NortheastAntioquia #UniPeace”

PBI-Colombia has accompanied the Humanitarian Action Corporation for Coexistence and Peace in Northeast Antioquia (CAHUCOPANA) since 2013.
