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.

The report presents findings from the Mapping Attitudes, Perceptions and Support (MAPS) project, based on 12,052 interviews in 73 municipalities across 16 PDET areas in Colombia. It reveals a complex landscape where 38% of respondents are satisfied with the Peace Agreement's implementation, while 58% are not. While the influence of armed groups has decreased from 55% to 30% since 2016, significant insecurity persists, and interpersonal and institutional trust remain low. The most positively perceived implementation areas are illicit crop substitution and truth, justice, and reparation for victims, whereas FARC political participation and health/education improvements are the least valued. The report emphasizes the strong correlation between perceived security and overall satisfaction with the peace process.
