Description
Communities of El Charco municipality, in southwestern Colombia, express their hopes for the "Total Peace" strategy led by leftist President Gustavo Petro. The policy aims at negotiating with rebels, drug traffickers, and gang members to cease the violence that persists in the country after the disarmament of the FARC guerrilla in 2017. Jhon Edwin Pinillo, a community leader, says he feels "hopeful" about the strategy because it means "macro or large-scale projects" will be carried out in his community. "People are waiting for opportunities to live in peace," adds the president of the Institute for Development and Peace (Indepaz) Camilo Gonzalez Posso. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
