Luces y sombras de la implementación del Acuerdo de Paz en Colombia

The report uses data from 12,000 interviews in PDET zones to evaluate the implementation of the Colombian Peace Agreement. It finds a divided population, with 38% satisfied and 58% dissatisfied. While the influence of armed groups has decreased from 55% to 30%, significant security challenges remain, including the assassination of social leaders. Trust in state institutions is low, while trust in the Catholic Church remains high. The report highlights the positive perception of illicit crop substitution and the work of transitional justice bodies, but notes a deep lack of trust in former FARC combatants and the FARC political party.

• Public satisfaction with the implementation of the Peace Agreement is low and polarized; 58% of respondents in PDET zones report being "nada" (not at all) satisfied, while 38% express some level of satisfaction.
• The influence of illegal armed groups in PDET communities decreased significantly between 2016 and 2019, dropping from 55% to 30%, although this figure remains high.
• Interpersonal and institutional trust is very low in PDET zones, with over 90% of people believing it is necessary to be very cautious when dealing with others. The Catholic Church is the most trusted entity at 59%.
• There is a profound lack of trust in the FARC political party and reincorporated ex-combatants, with approximately 80% of respondents reporting no trust in either.
• The most positively valued aspects of the agreement's implementation are the substitution of illicit crops and the systems for truth, justice, and reparation for victims.
• The assassination of social leaders and human rights defenders is strongly associated with lower levels of support for the Peace Agreement and lower satisfaction with its implementation at the municipal and PDET levels.
• Victimization remains a critical issue in PDET zones, with 42% of respondents reporting that they or a family member were victims of kidnapping, homicide, or sexual violence, and 55% reporting forced displacement.
• State presence in the territories has improved regarding justice and security, with the percentage of people viewing the state as the primary provider of justice increasing from 48% before the agreement to 64% in 2019.
• There is strong public support for a negotiated solution to the conflict with the ELN, with approximately 80% of respondents preferring negotiation over military force.
• Reconciliation remains difficult; nearly 70% of respondents would not feel comfortable having a former FARC member as a neighbor, although proximity to reincorporation zones (ETCR) tends to increase trust.
