00:01:07.233 --> 00:01:10.570
Dear Nasas, dear culture…

00:01:12.363 --> 00:01:16.951
In the name of our earth,
of mother earth

00:01:18.369 --> 00:01:20.955
And the entire cosmos

00:01:22.499 --> 00:01:25.376
of the spirits and nature

00:01:26.377 --> 00:01:31.758
we offer you these elements
produced by our land...

00:01:32.926 --> 00:01:38.556
For the health and peace of this territory.

00:01:45.980 --> 00:01:49.859
...the signing of the peace agreement in Colombia
between the government of Juan Manuel Santos...

00:01:49.984 --> 00:01:53.363
and the FARC guerrilla. ...they denounce
the non-compliance with the agreement...

00:01:53.488 --> 00:01:56.241
The government of Iván Duque\'s executive branch,
in turn...

00:01:56.366 --> 00:02:01.246
The figures don\'t lie, a new cycle of
political violence has begun.

00:02:01.371 --> 00:02:07.752
1241 Social leaders have been assassinated
since 2016, a figure that...

00:02:07.877 --> 00:02:10.088
...has the indigenous communities
of Cauca on high alert.

00:02:10.213 --> 00:02:14.551
In the last few hours they have denounced
the recruitment of a minor...

00:02:14.676 --> 00:02:16.344
Apparently by a dissident group...

00:02:16.427 --> 00:02:21.099
...between 2016 and 2020 in Cauca,
the most affected are the indigenous groups.

00:02:21.224 --> 00:02:24.769
A report delivered by the UN
speaks of 460 minors...

00:02:24.894 --> 00:02:30.066
who have entered the state’s youth protection
program after having been forcibly recruited...

00:02:30.150 --> 00:02:32.152
by illegal armed groups.

00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:39.951
During the last 6 decades, Colombia has gone through
the longest running civil war in Latin America.

00:02:40.952 --> 00:02:47.375
The war cost the lives of more than 250.000 people,
led to the displacement of more than 8 million people,

00:02:47.584 --> 00:02:54.966
and thousands of youngsters were recruited
by guerrillas, paramilitaries and the army.

00:02:55.967 --> 00:03:01.973
The indigenous Nasa community in Jambaló
in the North of the Cauca department

00:03:02.348 --> 00:03:05.351
was partiuclarly hard hit
by the conflict.

00:03:05.977 --> 00:03:12.984
After the signing of the Peace Accords in Havana in 2016,
the indigenous authorities have attempted

00:03:13.151 --> 00:03:17.947
to defintelively stop the conflict,
a project they also refer to as:

00:03:18.156 --> 00:03:22.952
Plan de Vida [a plan for life]

00:03:24.746 --> 00:03:30.376
A PLAN FOR LIFE

00:03:39.469 --> 00:03:40.970
Guys.
-What?

00:03:41.095 --> 00:03:42.430
Guys.
-What?

00:03:42.555 --> 00:03:45.767
My auntie Jacinta!

00:03:56.361 --> 00:03:58.947
What?
-When!

00:03:59.072 --> 00:04:01.491
When?
-What!

00:04:01.616 --> 00:04:04.285
What? What?

00:04:05.286 --> 00:04:08.373
Ready... When. when.
Good.

00:04:14.379 --> 00:04:16.965
Floor.
-Sky.

00:04:17.090 --> 00:04:18.841
Jenifer.
-Yes?

00:04:23.763 --> 00:04:25.348
Okay, your group.

00:04:26.349 --> 00:04:32.438
We weren\'t recognized before the law, were we?
That came with Law 21 of 1991...

00:04:32.563 --> 00:04:38.111
That’s when we were recognized
as native people and as Nasa people.

00:04:38.236 --> 00:04:42.699
And from then we were identified as a person,
as a citizen, as a Colombian...

00:04:42.824 --> 00:04:45.952
because before that
they mentioned us as like...?

00:04:46.077 --> 00:04:50.999
Like savages, right?
That was recognized.

00:04:51.124 --> 00:04:54.585
The Nasa culture and ideas
say that...

00:04:54.669 --> 00:04:59.465
first of all, identity is the individual
or collective life plan.

00:04:59.549 --> 00:05:05.054
That\'s why we created the Global Project
and ask: \'What do you think?

00:05:05.179 --> 00:05:08.850
What is your opinion? What do you propose?\'
That\'s what we do, right?

00:05:08.975 --> 00:05:14.897
As Nasa people, first of all,
we think and feel as a collective.

00:05:15.023 --> 00:05:20.445
Our development as human beings, our affections,
it\'s all collective, the ethical, the moral...

00:05:20.570 --> 00:05:27.952
This is what makes our community projects
possible: the minga [collective protest], everything!

00:06:33.434 --> 00:06:37.230
When I got to 5th grade,
I met up with...

00:06:37.355 --> 00:06:42.276
well, we were already older
and we started to play around.

00:06:42.402 --> 00:06:47.448
We didn\'t do our homework and because we were
playing around, we didn\'t do things right....

00:06:47.573 --> 00:06:54.580
And we would get bad grades and we lost the
year. I repeated the year like three times.

00:06:58.209 --> 00:07:01.295
My mum always told me
\'Please do something\'.

00:07:01.421 --> 00:07:04.841
The only one was my mum
the one who would make the effort and then...

00:07:04.966 --> 00:07:10.263
after repeating 3 times,
I said \'No, I\'m not studying anymore\'.

00:07:10.346 --> 00:07:12.974
And I didn\'t go on studying, and I left.

00:07:16.769 --> 00:07:24.026
My dad used to always come home drunk
and he would hit me, and insult me...

00:07:24.152 --> 00:07:30.783
He used to hit my mum, that’s how it was.
He went out every week.

00:07:33.494 --> 00:07:39.125
I used to tell my mum \'I can\'t take it anymore\',
and she said \'Why?\'

00:07:39.250 --> 00:07:44.964
Because of dad, I said, I can\'t take it anymore.
‘I’m leaving’, I said.

00:07:45.089 --> 00:07:52.180
And I left. To pick coca leaves,
And all that, to process the coca.

00:07:52.305 --> 00:07:55.266
We were taught like that.
That´s the work I did.

00:07:55.349 --> 00:08:01.355
First I went to clear some coca plants
and then they taught me how to pick them....

00:08:01.481 --> 00:08:05.568
and I started to pick, and then
they taught me how to process coca.

00:08:05.693 --> 00:08:12.158
So I started working in that business
and I worked there for about 6 months.

00:08:13.159 --> 00:08:16.078
Did you get paid well?
-Yes, yes, they paid me well over there.

00:08:16.204 --> 00:08:19.874
On a regular day they paid me
35, 40 thousand pesos. ($10US)

00:08:34.764 --> 00:08:39.352
Since I was a kid I always worked here and there
because my mum was single...

00:08:41.604 --> 00:08:45.358
What can I tell you,
my dad got my mum pregnant...

00:08:45.483 --> 00:08:48.986
He never took responsibility
when we were little.

00:08:51.280 --> 00:08:57.161
My mum raised me on her own,
when I was little.

00:08:58.746 --> 00:09:04.043
My mum sold firewood
to a lady that made bread.

00:09:04.168 --> 00:09:08.339
She would go and get firewood and carry it.
I saw how my mother worked.

00:09:08.464 --> 00:09:14.637
I did the same, I carried firewood.
And worked for my food....

00:09:14.762 --> 00:09:16.973
for any little something, I would help her.

00:09:22.979 --> 00:09:26.524
When my mum died that was very
difficult because you know...

00:09:26.649 --> 00:09:31.487
Because if they see you without mum,
they all want something from you...

00:09:31.612 --> 00:09:34.574
\'You come over here, you do this\'.

00:09:36.242 --> 00:09:42.707
When the Cabildo handed me over to my dad,
he said that I wasn\'t his son...

00:09:42.832 --> 00:09:48.462
And I was rejected by him.
He didn\'t give me clothes, nothing.

00:09:48.546 --> 00:09:50.881
So then I left the house....

00:09:52.049 --> 00:09:57.972
and from there my uncle from Pitayó, well,
he loved me. I would visit and he took me in.

00:09:58.097 --> 00:10:02.977
That\'s how I got involved with those people
from the mountains, as they call them.

00:10:03.102 --> 00:10:10.234
The guerrilla, collaborating like that.
I would do the work, I picked coca leaves.

00:10:10.359 --> 00:10:12.111
By then I was already...

00:10:13.404 --> 00:10:20.911
about... 13, no more than 13 or 14 years old.
I was pretty smart already.

00:10:40.556 --> 00:10:43.851
This is my house.
Since there\'s no money...

00:10:43.976 --> 00:10:49.357
to make a good house, it\'s like this
with walls of mud.

00:10:54.362 --> 00:10:58.366
This one\'s made out of pinewood,
it’s normally done with straw.

00:10:58.491 --> 00:11:00.951
But I put pine leaf.

00:11:05.164 --> 00:11:07.583
And some other things I used as well.

00:11:14.674 --> 00:11:19.053
This is where we sleep, like this,
like indigenous...

00:11:19.178 --> 00:11:24.225
because we don\'t have the money
to make a good house.

00:11:24.308 --> 00:11:27.353
There are others who live well,
city people... They live well...

00:11:27.478 --> 00:11:33.567
Sometimes it\'s even embarrassing, but you
have to attend guests anyway you can.

00:11:34.985 --> 00:11:40.783
Six children. Six in this little house
and it doesn\'t fit, but...

00:11:40.866 --> 00:11:43.577
There we live and sleep like little pigs
on top of each other.

00:11:46.497 --> 00:11:53.129
I always say, as indigenous we don\'t have
money, but we do like to have many children.

00:11:53.254 --> 00:11:59.427
Everybody around here is in the same situation,
that\'s why, it\'s been very hard.

00:11:59.552 --> 00:12:05.099
Here I\'ve seen that other people
have 10, 11, 12 children.

00:12:05.224 --> 00:12:08.644
So, to me that\'s really hard.

00:12:08.769 --> 00:12:16.026
People work day jobs carrying sugarcane
from the river up here.

00:12:16.152 --> 00:12:21.282
In order to be able to feed the family
every week, they have to scavenge that.

00:12:21.407 --> 00:12:26.036
So that\'s why it’s also
very hard to raise a child.

00:12:26.162 --> 00:12:31.250
It\'s very painful,
but these things happen.

00:12:31.375 --> 00:12:34.462
Those days
can\'t be taken back...

00:12:35.504 --> 00:12:39.425
but we have to wait for God, see
where he takes us. That’s all.

00:12:48.976 --> 00:12:53.981
Colombia is one of the most unequal
countries in the world.

00:12:55.983 --> 00:13:03.949
More than 50% of productive land
is owned by a mere 2000 families.

00:13:11.874 --> 00:13:16.962
The Colombian government calculated
that a farmer family in Jambaló

00:13:17.379 --> 00:13:22.968
needs about 12 hectares of land to sustain itself.

00:13:25.930 --> 00:13:31.977
The average of land per family in Jambaló
is around 2,8 hectares.

00:13:36.440 --> 00:13:42.321
If we cannot come with some strategies
and some actions, I think that...

00:13:42.446 --> 00:13:48.035
very soon we will see a conflict
that’s worse than the war...

00:13:48.160 --> 00:13:54.959
what we dream of and made part
of our life plan...

00:13:55.084 --> 00:14:00.965
is what we call “wët wët fxizenxi”,
which means living in harmony with the land.

00:14:07.096 --> 00:14:10.850
We have to include our young men,
because if we don\'t...

00:14:10.975 --> 00:14:15.312
They are at risk of becoming
involved in the conflict.

00:14:15.437 --> 00:14:17.648
Youngsters see the outside world
as a better opportunity...

00:14:17.773 --> 00:14:21.026
Compared to life in our own territory.

00:14:21.151 --> 00:14:27.533
That\'s why they join the armed groups,
That´s why they join the army …

00:14:27.658 --> 00:14:29.869
That´s why they leave to pick coca.

00:14:31.662 --> 00:14:35.749
So,
Jambaló has a very big challenge, which is...

00:14:35.875 --> 00:14:39.962
to define the role of our youngsters
in our community process.

00:14:43.966 --> 00:14:49.346
First think about it, then say it, ok.
For example if you like weapons...

00:14:49.430 --> 00:14:53.183
whatever you want to express
about the armed conflict. Okay?

00:14:54.184 --> 00:14:55.561
You can talk now.

00:14:56.645 --> 00:15:00.566
Ok. You will have to present in public
Just like the others are doing.

00:15:01.650 --> 00:15:06.488
They dress for the bush,
with guns and all that.

00:15:06.614 --> 00:15:12.244
Do you think the armed conflict is a good thing?
-Well, both yes and no.

00:15:12.369 --> 00:15:17.249
Why?
-Because they control, the control...

00:15:17.374 --> 00:15:24.965
During that confrontation of 2012
a lot of families were forced to leave...

00:15:25.090 --> 00:15:30.137
and shortly after, they came back,
little by little but up to this day...

00:15:30.262 --> 00:15:36.226
they don’t know who
killed the leaders.

00:15:36.352 --> 00:15:41.273
Youngster are taken by force,
to be part of the group...

00:15:41.398 --> 00:15:45.277
and then afterwards
they die over there or ....

00:15:45.402 --> 00:15:51.951
Three youngsters went and now
they don\'t want to go back.

00:15:52.076 --> 00:15:55.704
I\'m very worried about it.

00:15:56.705 --> 00:16:00.876
One time we met with the community president
and we decided to dialogue and...

00:16:11.095 --> 00:16:16.600
Well, teacher.
There\'s a situation with a student...

00:16:16.725 --> 00:16:20.062
where there\'s talk
of a possible recruitment.

00:16:20.145 --> 00:16:28.112
The student has shown certain behavior
outside of his home.

00:16:28.237 --> 00:16:31.031
He is in eighth grade.

00:16:31.156 --> 00:16:35.494
He has told me
that he\'s had an invitation...

00:16:35.619 --> 00:16:40.666
and that they had given him clothes,
a mobile phone...

00:16:40.749 --> 00:16:46.839
and that the person who got him to do that
was an uncle, who invited him.

00:16:46.964 --> 00:16:53.637
Well yeah, that\'s the situation.
That’s where we come in...

00:16:53.762 --> 00:16:56.181
to see how we can support or help him.

00:16:58.767 --> 00:17:01.645
How many of your family members
have left the territory...

00:17:01.770 --> 00:17:04.982
in search of economic possibilities?
What places did they go to?

00:17:05.065 --> 00:17:11.864
Cali, Naya, Antioquia,
Tambo, El Huila...

00:17:11.947 --> 00:17:15.242
Well, there are quite a few
that left at some point.

00:17:15.367 --> 00:17:18.954
Many young people have left the territory
in search of opportunities...

00:17:19.079 --> 00:17:25.836
either to work in other places,
or become members of...

00:17:25.961 --> 00:17:30.966
armed groups, either right-wing
or left-wing...

00:17:31.091 --> 00:17:34.428
They don’t get enough orientation...

00:17:34.553 --> 00:17:37.514
Or spaces and activities
like this...

00:17:37.639 --> 00:17:42.144
That’s why they leave
and go to different places...

00:17:42.227 --> 00:17:49.068
For example, El Tambo,
and other coca growing area...

00:17:49.193 --> 00:17:53.363
in search of possibilities,
and a better life.

00:17:57.493 --> 00:18:00.037
We need to include strategies
in our community Life Plan...

00:18:00.162 --> 00:18:03.165
that are accompanied by specific actions
to attend our adolescent population.

00:18:03.290 --> 00:18:08.253
We need this very short term:
how do we engage our youngsters?

00:18:09.254 --> 00:18:13.634
We have a considerable adolescent population
and I sometimes wonder...

00:18:13.759 --> 00:18:16.178
What opportunities are there for them?

00:19:55.360 --> 00:19:57.654
Good morning.
-Good morning.

00:19:57.779 --> 00:19:59.781
How did you wake up today?
-Good.

00:19:59.865 --> 00:20:02.242
Did you sleep well?

00:20:02.367 --> 00:20:05.746
I am Eybar Fernández...

00:20:06.747 --> 00:20:12.753
coordinator of the Plan de Vida
Proyecto Global Jambaló.

00:20:13.754 --> 00:20:20.177
I have been invited
to talk with you...

00:20:20.302 --> 00:20:24.848
The first challenge for any youngster is
to feel free to speak up.

00:20:24.973 --> 00:20:31.521
The youngsters have to take more ownership
and speak up and be heard...

00:20:31.647 --> 00:20:33.315
within the organization...

00:20:33.440 --> 00:20:38.028
I think the youngsters should share
what they feel, what they think...

00:20:38.153 --> 00:20:42.324
and they should get involved
and take more leadership.

00:20:42.449 --> 00:20:47.913
So, youngsters, what\'s on your mind?
What are your concerns?

00:20:49.957 --> 00:20:53.752
This young lady here says
that she is very concerned about our youth.

00:20:53.877 --> 00:20:58.840
Those that have taken a wrong turn,
that are lost, that have left.

00:20:58.966 --> 00:21:02.261
The issue of conflict.
We are concerned about the conflict.

00:21:02.386 --> 00:21:06.640
I\'m going to write this down
because I think it\'s transcendental.

00:21:06.765 --> 00:21:11.770
You\'re worried about the conflict, right?
Concerned about...

00:21:15.065 --> 00:21:17.776
You say one thing,
you say conflict...

00:22:18.045 --> 00:22:21.256
I had already made my decision,
I wanted to go away.

00:22:21.381 --> 00:22:25.344
From the day I left for El Naya
I had made that decision...

00:22:25.427 --> 00:22:30.432
but they didn\'t receive me because in El Naya,
the guerrilla doesn’t take 13 year old’s...

00:22:30.557 --> 00:22:33.977
let\'s say, they don\'t receive minors,
only from 15 years up.

00:22:35.562 --> 00:22:37.981
I was 13 years old at the time,
they didn\'t receive me.

00:22:40.067 --> 00:22:45.030
I had already made up my mind, even if they
didn\'t receive me now, I still wanted to go.

00:22:45.155 --> 00:22:51.328
Last year I said
\'Well, the time has come\'.

00:22:51.453 --> 00:22:58.043
I talked to them and I left at once.
\'Mum, I\'m going again,\' I said.

00:22:58.168 --> 00:23:02.255
And she said, \'Where to?\' I said,
\'No, well I\'m in this thing and...

00:23:02.381 --> 00:23:07.260
I\'m going over there
with the armed groups,\' I said.

00:23:07.386 --> 00:23:13.767
My mum said \'Why are you going to do that?\'
I said \'Mom, I can\'t take it anymore\'.

00:23:13.892 --> 00:23:17.854
I\'m going away. Someday I\'ll come visit you\'.
I went out and left.

00:23:17.979 --> 00:23:24.569
I said goodbye to my family, my sister was there,
my brother too. I went out and I left.

00:23:24.694 --> 00:23:30.033
I had been thinking about that since I was 13,
With all that was going on with my dad...

00:23:30.158 --> 00:23:36.164
He used to beat my mum, I remember that,
it started when I was 5 years old.

00:23:56.560 --> 00:24:01.231
A special regional report, the chronology
of COVID-19 in Western Colombia.

00:24:01.356 --> 00:24:05.235
We open with the department of Cauca and
how its people are experiencing this emergency.

00:24:05.360 --> 00:24:09.656
The number of people infected by COVID
in Cauca is now 61...

00:24:09.781 --> 00:24:15.662
According to the latest
report from the National Institute of Health.

00:24:15.745 --> 00:24:19.332
Relatives of COVID-19 patients
are multiplying...

00:24:19.458 --> 00:24:21.877
in western Colombia.
The story from ...

00:24:22.002 --> 00:24:26.131
The closing of the territory by the
Indigenous, Afrocolombian...

00:24:26.256 --> 00:24:31.136
and Peasant guards has helped to
contain the expansion of COVID-19...

00:24:31.261 --> 00:24:35.307
in the department of Cauca.
COVID-19 arrived...

00:25:08.048 --> 00:25:11.968
In March 2020 the first case of COVID-19
was reported in Colombia.

00:25:12.969 --> 00:25:17.349
To counter the spread of the virus,
also called “el We”,

00:25:17.516 --> 00:25:21.978
the authorities decide to close the borders of
the reserve and restrict entry to non-residents.

00:25:47.879 --> 00:25:50.715
For us the biggest fear
were the armed groups...

00:25:50.840 --> 00:25:54.886
because that was like, let\'s say...

00:25:55.011 --> 00:26:01.351
handing our students over to them,
leaving them at their disposal.

00:26:01.476 --> 00:26:09.109
Why? Because with these kids at home all day,
or in the village...

00:26:09.234 --> 00:26:13.029
Hanging around with nothing to do,
just outside the house.

00:26:13.154 --> 00:26:20.328
The armed groups saw that and
they took advantage of the situation.

00:26:20.453 --> 00:26:26.960
and they found ways
to lure them.

00:26:27.085 --> 00:26:32.465
And we know that a lot of them,
a lot of students fell for that.

00:26:32.591 --> 00:26:37.679
One way or another they got convinced,
they fell for it, as we say.

00:26:46.062 --> 00:26:49.524
They thought well, we\'re not doing anything,
there\'s no class...

00:26:49.649 --> 00:26:53.862
I\'m going to go earn easy money,
I\'m going to go learn to handle a gun\'.

00:26:53.945 --> 00:26:59.784
That was what,
well what caused ehm...

00:27:01.494 --> 00:27:06.291
this scare or mixed emotions,
we thought, \'well\'...

00:27:07.751 --> 00:27:14.549
We have been trying as hard as we could
to prevent them from leaving us.

00:27:14.966 --> 00:27:20.972
From 2020, all activities are suspended.

00:27:22.015 --> 00:27:27.979
It takes 6 months for the schools to open again,
running classes with half the students present.

00:27:29.356 --> 00:27:31.983
Good morning.

00:27:32.067 --> 00:27:38.948
We\'re going to try and open this
‘Assembly of the Proyecto Global’...

00:27:39.074 --> 00:27:46.373
to see if we can get this assembly installed
before lunch.

00:27:48.792 --> 00:27:55.840
Nobody expected that at some point in
life, in the history of mankind...

00:27:55.965 --> 00:28:02.013
we we\'re going to be confined to our houses
like this, nobody expected that...

00:28:02.138 --> 00:28:08.019
As a people we have one added value,
our collective identity, that makes us strong.

00:28:08.144 --> 00:28:12.273
Because that identity has always
distinguished us...

00:28:12.399 --> 00:28:15.985
We always part from
an exercise of collectivity.

00:28:16.069 --> 00:28:19.114
This harmonious community coexistence,
deeply connected to our territory...

00:28:19.239 --> 00:28:22.325
is the main foundation
of the struggle of our people.

00:28:22.450 --> 00:28:29.249
The aspect that distinguishes us will always
be the resistance from and within our territory.

00:28:29.374 --> 00:28:36.172
2021. So, friends and colleagues
we are starting the assembly.

00:28:36.297 --> 00:28:37.966
The coordinator of the Life Plan
of the Proyecto Global Eybar

00:28:38.091 --> 00:28:42.303
has socialized the points
to be discussed during these 3 days.

00:28:42.387 --> 00:28:46.766
So, let\'s start with the protocol
hymn of Cauca.

00:29:08.747 --> 00:29:13.626
I am a son of Cauca

00:29:13.752 --> 00:29:18.965
I carry Paéz blood

00:29:19.090 --> 00:29:24.179
The blood of those who have always fought

00:29:24.304 --> 00:29:29.350
from colonial conquest to today

00:29:29.476 --> 00:29:34.481
The blood of those who have always fought

00:29:34.606 --> 00:29:40.570
from the conquest to today

00:29:43.656 --> 00:29:45.784
Comrades Kiwe Thegnas (indigenous guards),
good morning to you all.

00:29:45.867 --> 00:29:50.747
Thank you everyone
for your accompaniment

00:29:50.872 --> 00:29:54.250
And for your participation
of all of you...

00:29:54.375 --> 00:29:56.628
35 Indigenous Guards we have here today...

00:29:56.753 --> 00:30:00.340
You know when we get to the school,
we directly go into the classrooms in couples.

00:30:00.465 --> 00:30:01.633
Don\'t forget.

00:30:01.758 --> 00:30:07.305
You know these guys are fast.
I say that because in the lower zone....

00:30:07.388 --> 00:30:11.559
while you’re not looking for a second,
they will hide or throw away any object...

00:30:11.684 --> 00:30:16.272
And you didn’t even notice.
With these type of checks, one has to...

00:30:16.397 --> 00:30:22.028
Keep an eye on those near the door,
because these guys, when you see them there,...

00:30:22.153 --> 00:30:26.783
They’re faster than us, especially
if they carry anything not permitted.

00:30:38.378 --> 00:30:42.048
Good morning, kids. How are you?
-Very well.

00:30:42.173 --> 00:30:45.468
Would you be so kind as to cooperate.
We are going to do a territorial control...

00:30:45.593 --> 00:30:50.974
We are going to check all the backpacks.
Please cooperate.

00:30:51.099 --> 00:30:55.562
Each one with backpack in hand please,
Check them well.

00:30:58.773 --> 00:31:00.483
Pass me your backpack, please.

00:31:03.069 --> 00:31:04.779
What are you doing here?

00:31:05.780 --> 00:31:09.784
Are you allowed to bring scissors?

00:31:23.506 --> 00:31:24.966
It\'s a slingshot.

00:31:42.650 --> 00:31:49.657
We have a lot of students with
siblings, uncles, even parents...

00:31:49.782 --> 00:31:54.370
That belong or belonged
or work for these groups.

00:31:56.080 --> 00:32:00.168
So, it’s likely that some are involved.

00:32:01.502 --> 00:32:05.632
How do I approach them, where do I enter,
how do I get to them?

00:32:05.757 --> 00:32:11.971
Because stuck in the middle,
in the vacuum, is the student...

00:32:12.096 --> 00:32:15.975
the adolescent who has to
deal with his problems.

00:32:17.977 --> 00:32:23.316
The idea is, as always,
to give them psychosocial support...

00:32:23.441 --> 00:32:27.654
so they don\'t feel alone because
when a human beings feel alone...

00:32:27.779 --> 00:32:30.949
they make bad decisions.

00:32:31.074 --> 00:32:36.245
...each of your communities,
you\'re the ones that 10-20 years from now...

00:32:36.371 --> 00:32:39.666
will set an example
for your family.

00:32:39.749 --> 00:32:45.254
And if you want, you can be
very important people.

00:32:45.380 --> 00:32:50.635
That\'s why we\'re reminding you today
take this message back to your families...

00:32:50.760 --> 00:32:56.557
your dad, your mum, that today
we did territorial control in this school.

00:32:58.059 --> 00:33:02.563
...and we will keep doing this exercise...
so please get used to it..

00:33:02.689 --> 00:33:07.986
This is our territory and we will defend it
from all threats.

00:33:08.069 --> 00:33:12.949
It\'s not just about taking care of us,
but defending the territory means...

00:33:13.074 --> 00:33:15.576
that every indigenous members defend it.

00:33:25.753 --> 00:33:28.381
Well we call him Romildo.

00:33:32.176 --> 00:33:37.974
What happened to him?
-Well, I don\'t know what happened to him.

00:33:38.099 --> 00:33:43.438
First of all, he was studying, he was there...

00:33:43.563 --> 00:33:46.357
at school, he was studying.

00:33:46.482 --> 00:33:51.571
He was doing well with his homework,
he hadn’t lost a year.

00:33:51.696 --> 00:33:56.784
He was doing well every year and all of a sudden
he didn\'t want to study, like he said that day...

00:33:56.868 --> 00:33:59.495
He didn\'t want to study and I said to him
\'Why don\'t you want to study?

00:33:59.620 --> 00:34:05.835
I guess I\'m making myself look bad as a parent
we thought, but the two of us...

00:34:05.960 --> 00:34:08.838
with the wife, we were working
to save little by little...

00:34:08.963 --> 00:34:12.967
In the old days with what we got
we bought him his clothes and so...

00:34:13.092 --> 00:34:14.927
But even then he didn\'t want to work.

00:34:15.053 --> 00:34:20.349
Before he left, he was very bored.
\'I\'m very bored\', he would say.

00:34:20.475 --> 00:34:26.230
So I was like, \'Man,
You\'re young, why are you so bored?\'.

00:34:26.355 --> 00:34:31.027
No obligation, no kids, no wife.
When you have obligations...

00:34:31.152 --> 00:34:37.658
everyone needs money, but you\'re
on your own\', I would say.

00:34:37.784 --> 00:34:41.871
And he said \'No dad, I feel bored,
I don\'t even want to work\'.

00:34:41.996 --> 00:34:46.250
Why are you bored? I did not hit him,
I didn\'t bother him, I didn\'t hit him...

00:34:46.375 --> 00:34:50.046
I haven\'t made him carry firewood
all day without lunch.

00:34:50.171 --> 00:34:56.052
Although the boy loves us very much,
but he didn´t anything about leaving us...

00:34:56.177 --> 00:35:01.891
He didn´t say anything, he just took the street
and left and I don\'t know where he is.

00:35:02.016 --> 00:35:06.771
It\'s been more than 5 months
and I don\'t even know where he is.

00:35:06.896 --> 00:35:13.277
So they\'re out there playing football
and they just leave, I don\'t know...

00:35:13.402 --> 00:35:17.365
I don\'t know why they do that,
I don\'t know...

00:35:17.490 --> 00:35:21.160
but that\'s how it happened to me.

00:35:23.204 --> 00:35:25.957
To his mum...
that\'s why she didn\'t want to talk...

00:35:26.082 --> 00:35:28.584
because she can\'t stand it,
she starts crying.

00:35:55.153 --> 00:35:56.946
I like him very much.

00:35:59.949 --> 00:36:03.244
I used to tell him....

00:36:03.369 --> 00:36:08.457
I told him \'study, my son\'...
First I told him to buy a bicycle...

00:36:08.583 --> 00:36:15.173
and I would give it to him
to go to school with...

00:36:15.298 --> 00:36:17.425
and I bought him the bike,
I gave it to him...

00:36:20.636 --> 00:36:25.975
but he didn\'t want to study either.

00:36:26.100 --> 00:36:30.563
I don\'t know what he thought
about doing.

00:36:32.899 --> 00:36:38.487
But as I said to him, I cannot follow
him all day to know where he is.

00:36:38.613 --> 00:36:41.490
I\'m just saying God knows where he is,
that\'s all.

00:36:46.370 --> 00:36:50.374
A lot of people say that
the guerrilla recruits children...

00:36:50.499 --> 00:36:55.755
but I know that the army
also recruits children into the guerrilla...

00:36:55.880 --> 00:36:57.757
because it happened to me.

00:37:01.052 --> 00:37:05.514
\'We\'re going to send you,
to help us capture guerrilla members.

00:37:05.640 --> 00:37:11.145
In two years you snitch on so many,
you go as an infiltrator\'.

00:37:11.270 --> 00:37:16.234
And they told her
\'we\'re going to help your mother...

00:37:16.359 --> 00:37:22.448
to get out of poverty, we\'re going to send
your sisters to school, we will help your mum...

00:37:22.573 --> 00:37:27.161
we are going to give her a house,
many scholarships for your sisters\'.

00:37:27.286 --> 00:37:32.041
And my daughter was 15 years old,
she had just turned 15.

00:37:32.166 --> 00:37:37.004
Once she entered, she had to do
everything that the others were doing.

00:37:37.129 --> 00:37:40.383
And walk at night, and my daughter
she wasn\'t used to that.

00:37:40.466 --> 00:37:45.054
She escaped with a rifle and tried
to turn herself in to the army.

00:37:45.179 --> 00:37:50.351
She was going to say \'I didn\'t keep my promise,
but I\'m here to deliver this\'.

00:37:50.476 --> 00:37:54.146
But before she got there,
she was caught by the guerrilla...

00:37:54.272 --> 00:38:00.528
and they bought her back again
and she was there like...

00:38:00.653 --> 00:38:06.367
1 month and 15 days,
and she was tied up to be shot.

00:38:07.868 --> 00:38:13.457
So that\'s where I come in, right?
To say \'no, we do this and this\'.

00:38:14.458 --> 00:38:21.966
My commitment was that she would come back
to the house and I would go to work with them...

00:38:22.091 --> 00:38:28.180
And that\'s what we did. They complied
and I complied, until the peace process started.

00:38:57.585 --> 00:39:00.963
Bye guys, thank you.
-At your service, neighbor. Good luck to you.

00:39:03.758 --> 00:39:08.471
I remember when they used to tell me that
I was 2 years old, my dad went to jail.

00:39:09.221 --> 00:39:15.519
For slander. So I grew up
mostly with my mum.

00:39:17.605 --> 00:39:21.734
If they allowed anyone to study,
it was just the men, not the women.

00:39:21.859 --> 00:39:25.780
They didn\'t study,
they were just hanging around.

00:39:25.905 --> 00:39:31.577
Studying was for men only,
and the women were to remain in the house.

00:39:31.702 --> 00:39:35.581
I studied for about 4 or 5 months no more
and I didn\'t learn anything.

00:39:39.168 --> 00:39:44.965
The guerrilla support you.
That\'s where I learned how to write my name...

00:39:45.091 --> 00:39:50.346
because there they made us all read.
There was a commander...

00:39:50.471 --> 00:39:56.519
I don\'t know where he came from but he said
\'This is how you spell your name\'.

00:39:56.644 --> 00:39:59.855
That\'s where I learned
how to write my name.

00:39:59.980 --> 00:40:03.401
Rights were equal for everybody,
it was equal.

00:40:03.526 --> 00:40:07.947
I learned a little bit of everything there.

00:40:24.380 --> 00:40:27.842
Well, my son was studying
at the school...

00:40:27.967 --> 00:40:32.972
I\'m very supportive of his schoolwork.
He\'s a big boy now, 14 years old...

00:40:33.097 --> 00:40:40.229
Well he sees his dad working, he\'s already seen
how to work and he likes it too.

00:40:40.354 --> 00:40:43.858
Together we mine sand.
And I keep an eye on him...

00:40:43.983 --> 00:40:47.736
my dad didn\'t give me the opportunity,
but I want my son to get ahead.

00:40:47.862 --> 00:40:51.615
I mean, I want my son to get ahead,
that\'s all I want.

00:40:56.620 --> 00:41:04.545
The sun, the moon, the stars
and mother earth.

00:41:04.628 --> 00:41:09.175
Everything that moves in our territory...

00:41:10.468 --> 00:41:14.638
is strength for my body...

00:41:14.763 --> 00:41:18.642
so today we honor you...

00:41:18.767 --> 00:41:23.355
on name of our friend here,
we are...

00:42:03.979 --> 00:42:07.858
My Father, bless you for those animals
that you have given me to take care of.

00:42:07.983 --> 00:42:12.655
Thank you holy father. In the name
of the father, the son and the Holy Spirit.

00:42:12.780 --> 00:42:18.285
Holy are you my father.
Amen, amen, and amen.

00:42:23.874 --> 00:42:26.210
I was a commander in the guerrilla.

00:42:26.335 --> 00:42:29.713
I had a high rank, yes.

00:42:29.838 --> 00:42:35.135
Did you handle a lot of people?
-Yes, they gave me my people and...

00:42:35.261 --> 00:42:38.597
Where did you command?
-Over here, this whole area.

00:42:41.892 --> 00:42:46.063
Well, living as a guerrilla,
you suffer a lot.

00:42:46.146 --> 00:42:50.651
Over there, there is no bailing out.

00:42:50.776 --> 00:42:57.074
Brother, whether it\'s raining, or not,
or sunny, when it\'s your turn, it´s your turn.

00:42:57.199 --> 00:43:00.452
Let´s say you went to sleep,
you\'re sent to sleep...

00:43:00.578 --> 00:43:03.706
let\'s take an example
at 8:00, 8:30 at night...

00:43:03.831 --> 00:43:08.836
and if it was your turn to be on duty
at 10:00, 12:00 at night...

00:43:08.961 --> 00:43:14.049
whether it\'s raining or not, you\'ve had
to get up because that\'s your commitment.

00:43:14.174 --> 00:43:18.345
You have to look after your own life,
and that of your colleagues.

00:43:18.470 --> 00:43:24.643
But, once here in civilian life,
man, it\'s good.

00:43:24.768 --> 00:43:27.646
Why is that? Because you go to bed
to sleep when it\'s raining...

00:43:27.771 --> 00:43:33.319
you\'re lying in your bed,
no one will get you up, you know?

00:43:33.444 --> 00:43:40.242
I thank God for that, because
I\'ve been able to get to know the word of God...

00:43:40.367 --> 00:43:44.079
and it\'s beautiful to follow
God\'s ways, right?

00:43:44.204 --> 00:43:50.252
I am no longer a soldier in arms,
I\'m now a soldier of Christ.

00:43:50.377 --> 00:43:58.177
I\'m going to leave him there,
because the calf needs to drink as well.

00:43:58.302 --> 00:44:04.767
Because if I get all the milk for myself,
the calf will be looking for me...

00:44:06.060 --> 00:44:10.439
When they order milk from you,
it\'s a matter of...

00:44:10.564 --> 00:44:13.776
but since I don\'t have an order today
I\'m going to take it home like this.

00:44:20.074 --> 00:44:23.744
We never thought that we would have to
to accept the return of community members...

00:44:26.038 --> 00:44:29.375
who at one point in time
did so much damage to the community.

00:44:31.210 --> 00:44:34.380
And today they decide
to return to the territory.

00:44:34.505 --> 00:44:42.179
That caught us off guard. For example,
Jambaló in one assembly said...

00:44:43.764 --> 00:44:50.479
\'If they want to rejoin civilian life,
they will have to show 10 years of work\'.

00:44:50.604 --> 00:44:56.568
Others said they were not willing
to receive them.

00:44:56.694 --> 00:45:03.826
But they are children of people from here,
they are children of the territory....

00:45:03.951 --> 00:45:07.037
they\'re indigenous people
that have been here in this process.

00:45:10.374 --> 00:45:15.337
And today they are here,
today they\'re in our territory...

00:45:15.462 --> 00:45:20.175
hoping that whatever they\'re doing,
they\'re doing it for the community...

00:45:20.300 --> 00:45:26.557
for the sake of their own families,
their wives, of their children...

00:45:26.682 --> 00:45:30.853
and that they help
not to wage war anymore.

00:45:39.236 --> 00:45:43.782
We have said
\'we have to seek dialogue\'.

00:45:44.950 --> 00:45:49.246
Our fellows who have been
in the armed groups...

00:45:49.371 --> 00:45:53.751
whether from the right or the left...

00:45:53.876 --> 00:45:59.631
when they return to the territory they must comply
with a certain period of time...

00:45:59.757 --> 00:46:06.972
to demonstrate commitment
to their reintegration.

00:46:07.097 --> 00:46:14.146
And let\'s start working towards a single goal,
that is the goal of the Life Plan.

00:46:19.234 --> 00:46:23.697
With the diredction of the “Plan de Vida”
an education program is coordinated,

00:46:23.989 --> 00:46:30.662
that invites everyone older than 16 years of age
to finish their primary or secundary education.

00:46:31.538 --> 00:46:37.544
From 2018 the program invites
former members of FARC-EP.

00:46:38.545 --> 00:46:44.051
On behalf of the authorities kwekwe Nej´wesx,
I greet you. Welcome to all of you.

00:46:44.176 --> 00:46:50.474
We hope that this year will be
very strong, very productive.

00:46:50.599 --> 00:46:56.730
So, looking at the calendar
that the Nasa people here...

00:46:56.855 --> 00:47:01.485
what we did was we planned
from the 21st of March...

00:47:01.610 --> 00:47:06.031
when we have the \'ritual of fire\'
but we also have a daytrip...

00:47:06.156 --> 00:47:12.621
which is about taking care of mother earth,
on the 23rd of April.

00:47:12.746 --> 00:47:19.253
We will hike to Bear Lagoon
to see in what state she is

00:47:19.378 --> 00:47:22.965
and we will do a pedagogical
activity with you...

00:47:23.966 --> 00:47:27.886
That´s what they said, right?!

00:47:30.806 --> 00:47:36.895
When you arrived for the first time,
men and women...

00:47:37.938 --> 00:47:42.776
you gave your names, and now we do it again
but in Nasa Yuwe.

00:47:42.901 --> 00:47:52.160
And tell us who you are, what you want to be
a teacher, or a priest...

00:47:52.286 --> 00:47:59.251
Or a traditional medic, or a masseuse
whatever you want.

00:47:59.376 --> 00:48:04.131
And give the opportunity to people who
at some point left for another place...

00:48:04.256 --> 00:48:09.386
but want to come back here
and be part of the community.

00:48:09.469 --> 00:48:16.518
You will tell us your name, what expectations
you have in terms of the process...

00:48:16.643 --> 00:48:22.774
So, in my case
my name is Viviana Quilcué

00:48:22.900 --> 00:48:26.862
I am a teacher of this program...

00:48:36.455 --> 00:48:42.586
I am very happy to be part of this group.
It is very important to continue training...

00:49:38.684 --> 00:49:42.104
We should support people
who want to work...

00:49:43.105 --> 00:49:50.570
because in the Agreements there is land,
houses, houses with dignity as they say...

00:49:50.696 --> 00:49:56.493
education, health care, but the government
has never wanted to...

00:49:56.618 --> 00:50:03.750
and now even more so with the pandemic,
it has delayed a lot of things. I don\'t...

00:50:03.875 --> 00:50:11.508
But it would be good if other institutions
could come and support us...

00:50:11.633 --> 00:50:14.970
saying \'Go for it, it\'s okay
what you guys are doing.

00:50:15.095 --> 00:50:20.976
Look, you guys were in an armed group,
but you are showing everyone...

00:50:21.101 --> 00:50:24.980
that you can work\'.

00:50:28.150 --> 00:50:32.863
And work for the king of all kings,
which is God.

00:50:32.946 --> 00:50:36.783
Well, I\'m going to take this now.
Phew, it\'s heavy.

00:50:46.752 --> 00:50:54.259
They\'ve always been here until 2016,
until the last...

00:50:54.384 --> 00:50:58.680
They didn\'t come back until
the peace process started.

00:50:58.805 --> 00:51:05.645
There were times when there would 12 or 20
and when the peace process started...

00:51:05.771 --> 00:51:13.361
there were plenty of them. One December
there were a lots, maybe 300 or 400.

00:51:18.366 --> 00:51:24.539
That’s were they where
and made lunch and diner.

00:51:24.664 --> 00:51:31.463
They slept down there, up here,
over here, over there on the sides.

00:51:32.756 --> 00:51:38.136
And this is where they built the explosives.
They cut iron, they brought gunpowder.

00:51:38.261 --> 00:51:42.349
All those powders were dried in the sun
and put together....

00:51:42.474 --> 00:51:45.977
and then they\'d fill the cans
and bury them down here.

00:51:49.356 --> 00:51:53.777
They would stir up the Urea,
Nutrimon, gunpowder...

00:51:54.986 --> 00:51:59.491
and other stuff, that they would
mix it all up and put out to dry.

00:51:59.616 --> 00:52:06.373
Well, yeah the kids would come in and look
and they\'d always be curious, right?

00:52:06.498 --> 00:52:09.167
They were always there
touching everything.

00:52:09.292 --> 00:52:14.464
They would say \'hey girl, don\'t touch that,
don\'t look at this, it is not good for you\'.

00:52:14.548 --> 00:52:18.051
But we never thought that...

00:52:18.176 --> 00:52:23.974
the war would bring consequences
for my daughter later on, right?

00:53:25.368 --> 00:53:28.246
In the areas of Cauca, the people
have not been isolated by the COVID...

00:53:28.371 --> 00:53:31.583
but hidden by the war between illegal groups.

00:53:31.666 --> 00:53:33.835
In Cauca the acts of violence do not stop.

00:53:33.960 --> 00:53:38.381
The governor of the Resguardo Indígena
La Laguna-Siberia in Caldono...

00:53:38.465 --> 00:53:40.884
was killed by armed men.

00:53:41.051 --> 00:53:44.429
From a very young age Sandra Liliana Peña
was known within the community...

00:53:44.554 --> 00:53:46.765
for her leadership and tireless work...

00:53:57.192 --> 00:54:02.656
Today in the situation,
after a peace process that...

00:54:02.781 --> 00:54:06.660
between the government
and the former FARC...

00:54:06.785 --> 00:54:14.626
There was a lot of expectation amongst
the communities, after 50 years of conflict...

00:54:14.751 --> 00:54:20.632
because we would be signing a peace agreement.

00:54:20.757 --> 00:54:27.639
It was only one year, 2016 and part of 2017,
where you didn\'t hear a shot fired....

00:54:27.764 --> 00:54:32.978
no assassinations,
nor persecutions.

00:54:33.103 --> 00:54:40.860
What has started to happen again?
New armed groups have resurged!

00:54:40.986 --> 00:54:46.658
Supposedly because they never
agreed with the Agreement.

00:54:46.783 --> 00:54:53.373
You might actually agree with some of them,
seeing the non-compliance of the State.

00:54:53.498 --> 00:54:55.834
As indigenous communities
for more than 500 years we have ...

00:54:55.959 --> 00:55:00.588
I believe that the conflict is worsening.

00:55:00.714 --> 00:55:06.261
We see that the occupation
of armed groups is growing.

00:55:06.386 --> 00:55:13.476
So, for us it was just a short \'stop\' of the war,
a short \'stop\' of gunfire, and that was it.

00:55:13.601 --> 00:55:19.357
Currently in the northern part of the Cauca
we identified 8 armed groups...

00:55:19.482 --> 00:55:25.363
who are opposed to our Plan of Life
that we develop as communities.

00:55:27.157 --> 00:55:31.661
They oppose the legitimate exercise
of the indigenous authorities...

00:55:31.786 --> 00:55:36.458
they do not recognize the political exercise
of the authorities...

00:55:36.583 --> 00:55:42.547
they terrorize the communities...
to overtake the communities.

00:55:43.548 --> 00:55:49.637
When we look carefully, they are not people
from outside, they are our very own people...

00:55:49.763 --> 00:55:55.268
but carried away by a different ideology
from the one that comes from outside.

00:55:57.103 --> 00:56:05.028
They captured our young people
to use them however they please, right?

00:56:05.153 --> 00:56:07.989
So, target number 1
for this year...

00:56:08.114 --> 00:56:15.455
is to work on. the political and ideological
exercise of the Kiwe Thegnas.

00:56:15.580 --> 00:56:18.875
Who knows what is political-ideological?

00:56:44.150 --> 00:56:50.865
\'We came for you\' they told me. \'Leave me alone,
I don\'t want to know anything about that,\' I said.

00:56:50.949 --> 00:56:52.951
\'And why is that?\' they said to me.

00:56:55.495 --> 00:57:00.375
I said \'No, I want to take it easy,
because I\'m doing well at the moment\'.

00:57:02.085 --> 00:57:07.966
Then someone else came and told me:
\'Well if you don\'t go we\'ll take your son\'.

00:57:10.969 --> 00:57:16.141
I didn´t like the sound of it, I said no,
in that case I might have to send him.

00:57:16.266 --> 00:57:18.977
He said \'We\'ll take him,
or either one of you\'.

00:57:19.102 --> 00:57:24.649
I decided to tell him
that they could take me.

00:57:28.236 --> 00:57:34.534
I stood my ground, well I didn\'t...
I tried not to be afraid, because....

00:57:34.659 --> 00:57:40.665
I made a commitment to enter civilian life.
I said \'I\'m going there to live a civilian life....

00:57:40.748 --> 00:57:46.045
And I can\'t go back because life as a guerrilla
consumes you, I cannot live like that anymore.

00:57:46.171 --> 00:57:52.427
As a guerrilla you can be captured any moment.
Thinking about that, I told him \'No\'.

00:58:04.355 --> 00:58:06.774
We lived through a war...

00:58:10.069 --> 00:58:14.365
which was before this
mistakenly called peace process.

00:58:17.577 --> 00:58:24.167
I think we really believed that
that was going to be the end of the war.

00:58:26.503 --> 00:58:31.382
And of course, the conflict is making life
harder every day in our territory.

00:58:32.967 --> 00:58:36.554
It would be good to ask ourselves whether
we are witnessing the return of violence.

00:58:39.974 --> 00:58:43.394
Armed actors are on the rise again...

00:58:44.604 --> 00:58:47.732
illicit crops are increasing...

00:58:47.857 --> 00:58:51.653
the ambitious for power are taking over...

00:58:51.778 --> 00:58:55.949
and the social bases continue
to be hit hardest.

00:58:57.367 --> 00:59:01.955
And I think that today the risk is not COVID19,
today the major risk are...

00:59:02.080 --> 00:59:05.583
the armed groups that position
themselves in our territories.

00:59:05.667 --> 00:59:12.966
And the question is what to do.
We cannot allow our territory...

00:59:13.091 --> 00:59:16.844
to be controlled by armed groups.

00:59:16.970 --> 00:59:21.015
It is almost as if they were telling us
\'Don\'t come here at 6:00 in the evening\'....

00:59:21.140 --> 00:59:26.354
almost as if they are telling us
\'Do us a favor and leave that car\'...

00:59:26.479 --> 00:59:32.819
almost like saying \'You are either
joining us or you will find out the consequences.

00:59:32.944 --> 00:59:35.572
Are we on a route back to war?

00:59:40.952 --> 00:59:48.876
The number of young people sympathetic
to the armed group has increased.

00:59:51.504 --> 00:59:56.259
We have always said no
to the recruitment of our youngsters...

00:59:56.384 --> 00:59:59.554
of our children, and our women.

01:00:01.389 --> 01:00:07.770
There\'s somebody who\'s motivating them, who\'s
is encouraging them to this life, to this path.

01:00:09.564 --> 01:00:14.861
One question: from your hearts,
what are you thinking, fellows?

01:00:14.986 --> 01:00:20.366
Will you stay committed to this process with your
family, with the community, with the Life Plan?

01:00:22.076 --> 01:00:26.247
That is a question and it is a risk
that we should think about...

01:00:26.372 --> 01:00:32.587
or are you guys also thinking
of rearming again?

01:00:36.758 --> 01:00:43.306
There is a mistrust between the communities
and the reincorporated.

01:00:44.265 --> 01:00:50.146
They say that there are some of those who are
with the Process and have signed the Accords...

01:00:50.229 --> 01:00:56.444
that they have had to leave again,
leave to save their lives.

01:00:56.569 --> 01:01:04.243
One time I was asking somebody out there.
So, as I tell them...

01:01:04.369 --> 01:01:08.748
they had to leave because of threats.

01:01:08.873 --> 01:01:13.419
It\'s not because they feel like it
or because they want to leave...

01:01:13.544 --> 01:01:16.339
but because they are pressured, brother.

01:01:16.464 --> 01:01:21.469
And a lot of guys already. I\'ve heard
that a lot of guys say...

01:01:21.594 --> 01:01:28.393
No, I had to take up arms again, because
we are not going to get ourselves killed\'.

01:01:33.356 --> 01:01:37.151
They took tests,
but they didn\'t find anything.

01:01:38.152 --> 01:01:40.947
Like with those headaches
when she fainted.

01:01:42.073 --> 01:01:44.826
They say she had had
a stroke, but no...

01:01:44.951 --> 01:01:48.830
when they delivered the results
it didn\'t show any sign of that.

01:01:48.955 --> 01:01:55.753
So, they sent us back home
and on September 16th...

01:01:55.878 --> 01:02:01.634
She was again with that headache,
she fainted and came back again...

01:02:01.759 --> 01:02:07.515
They took her to Jambaló and they put her on
tranquilizers and sent her home.

01:02:07.640 --> 01:02:11.394
But she was still having these headaches,
so I sent her...

01:02:11.519 --> 01:02:18.025
to a specialist in Cali and that\'s where
they saw what was wrong.

01:02:18.151 --> 01:02:22.321
So, the doctor on Monday or Tuesday
called me and told me...

01:02:22.447 --> 01:02:26.659
\'I have the results
of your daughter’s tests.

01:02:26.784 --> 01:02:34.834
\'She has a lot of lead in her blood, she\'s
invaded by lead and it\'s already in her heart.

01:02:34.959 --> 01:02:37.628
She needs a blood change...

01:02:37.754 --> 01:02:43.176
or else we have to do a treatment with pills.

01:02:43.301 --> 01:02:45.386
That\'s what the doctor told me.

01:02:48.556 --> 01:02:52.643
There must be something here in the house
that is doing damage to the family...

01:02:52.769 --> 01:02:58.983
because grandfather has issues with
his blood and now the girl too.

01:02:59.066 --> 01:03:04.530
So, and that\'s when I remembered
that those people were here putting together...

01:03:04.655 --> 01:03:08.493
they were bringing Urea, and all this...
\'There\'s the logic of it,\' he said.

01:03:08.618 --> 01:03:13.706
\'What the grandfather has,
what the girl has, there it is\' he said.

01:03:13.790 --> 01:03:19.754
I can ask for help with the guerrillas
or ask for help from the state, right?

01:03:19.879 --> 01:03:24.133
I have two options,
because I am very poor

01:03:24.258 --> 01:03:31.849
and I don\'t have money for so many treatments
for my daughter. They are very expensive.

01:03:31.974 --> 01:03:35.394
So those are the two options
that I have, right?

01:03:35.520 --> 01:03:42.652
But if I ask the guerrillas for help,
the consequences would be that...

01:03:42.777 --> 01:03:48.157
It\'s like re-connecting with them,
isn\'t it? That\'s what I thought so far...

01:03:48.282 --> 01:03:52.662
and that\'s what I\'m still thinking about
how to... how to...

01:03:52.745 --> 01:03:57.375
Where to get help
with my daughter\'s treatments.

01:04:03.631 --> 01:04:05.758
This is going to be an...

01:04:08.845 --> 01:04:12.765
educational outing to the lagoon.

01:04:18.813 --> 01:04:25.152
There is another daytrip which is
for August 22.

01:04:28.573 --> 01:04:33.369
For this departure we are going to work
on ancestral arts.

01:04:36.581 --> 01:04:39.625
I forgot, this is about
\'taking care of mother earth\'.

01:04:42.461 --> 01:04:47.258
The cube tells us that this little number
that\'s here, this 3 is the base...

01:04:47.383 --> 01:04:53.764
so this is the base... this
would be the base, this is the cube...

01:04:55.683 --> 01:05:01.355
So, 6 x 6 x 6. How much would that give?

01:05:02.690 --> 01:05:04.066
Calculator...

01:05:05.067 --> 01:05:11.824
Ka Cxa Cxhan! [speaks Nasa yuwe]
What is Ka Cxa Cxhan? That\'s it, strengthening!

01:05:11.908 --> 01:05:15.953
We are left with that task...

01:05:16.078 --> 01:05:19.582
How to strengthen our language?

01:05:19.665 --> 01:05:25.838
Because that\'s what we what? That\'s what
identifies us as indigenous peoples.

01:05:25.963 --> 01:05:27.381
Okay, let\'s move on.

01:05:40.436 --> 01:05:45.066
\'We\'d better plant cabuya,\' he said.
He didn\'t even want to plant cabuya.

01:05:45.149 --> 01:05:47.485
\'I don\'t want to work at all,\' he said.

01:05:47.610 --> 01:05:52.156
I\'m not going to force you either, because
you\'re not a child anymore, you\'re old enough\'.

01:05:52.281 --> 01:05:55.159
He did not answer.

01:05:55.284 --> 01:06:02.625
\'Let\'s plant coffee... Make seedlings\',
I told him and he didn\'t answer either.

01:06:09.882 --> 01:06:17.556
I was afraid, because something might happen.
What if he does not come back?

01:06:19.183 --> 01:06:24.146
I said, \'You better not go,\' I said, \'you\'d better work
here. There\'s land right here\' I said.

01:06:24.230 --> 01:06:27.775
I said, \'You\'d better work and help
your dad,\' I said.

01:06:27.900 --> 01:06:31.779
\'But no matter how hard I work
there\'s no money coming in,\' he told me.

01:06:32.780 --> 01:06:39.245
\'I\'m going to leave because I don\'t have money,
and my shoes are getting old...

01:06:39.370 --> 01:06:44.625
and who gives me new shoes?\'. We won’t,
because we don\'t have money either, he said.

01:06:46.585 --> 01:06:48.379
So he left.

01:06:50.381 --> 01:06:54.969
He went to plant coca, fumigate, he said.

01:06:57.346 --> 01:07:02.435
There he said that there was also coffee
and... That they needed workers, he said.

01:07:07.356 --> 01:07:13.946
That\'s what they\'re doing. He likes to
to drink a lot so he struggles to save money.

01:07:17.074 --> 01:07:23.164
That\'s why I said \'No, you\'re leaving
but at the same time you come back with nothing\'.

01:07:24.874 --> 01:07:28.753
In Timba his uncles don\'t go out,
so maybe he manages to save a little.

01:07:32.089 --> 01:07:33.966
Let\'s see how it turns out.

01:07:41.974 --> 01:07:48.564
There goes Luchi... Vela, there goes Luchi.
Tell him \'Luchi\'.

01:08:05.372 --> 01:08:10.044
When you take a closer look, you will see
that reality is always different as it seems..

01:08:11.504 --> 01:08:18.052
I always say, instead of judging someone,
let\'s sit and talk and have a dialogue.

01:08:18.177 --> 01:08:22.765
To be able to ask \'Why would you go
to that armed group?\'

01:08:23.849 --> 01:08:30.064
The only thing I know that may bring
a solution to any young man...

01:08:30.147 --> 01:08:35.736
or in any human being is dialogue,
to sit down and have a dialogue with people...

01:08:35.861 --> 01:08:40.658
and I think that\'s what we need
as a community...

01:08:40.783 --> 01:08:45.371
as a safeguard, as a country:
we need dialogue.

01:08:52.211 --> 01:08:53.754
Good morning.

01:09:01.178 --> 01:09:02.555
Good morning.

01:09:04.473 --> 01:09:08.644
I believe that each one of us, as professionals,
we try very hard to contribute.

01:09:08.769 --> 01:09:12.982
I believe that many times we give a little bit extra
which is always necessary...

01:09:13.065 --> 01:09:18.154
To give that little bit extra to reach out
to them one way or another.

01:09:19.071 --> 01:09:23.409
If anything, please tell him that
the psychologist was here for him, that\'s all.

01:09:23.534 --> 01:09:30.374
To see if he can come by school.
Yes? Okay. Thank you very much.

01:09:44.388 --> 01:09:47.558
I\'m ready. On the count of 3 we make a circle.
We start with the one on the bird.

01:09:47.683 --> 01:09:51.228
One, two and three, go!

01:09:52.229 --> 01:09:54.231
Stop right there.
-What happened?

01:09:54.356 --> 01:09:57.359
Harder. Stop there.
-What happened?

01:09:59.945 --> 01:10:03.866
He got shot in the eye...
-All like that...

01:10:03.949 --> 01:10:06.327
There it goes. There it goes.
- There it goes.

01:10:06.452 --> 01:10:12.041
There goes the parrot, there he goes.
-With her...

01:10:12.166 --> 01:10:15.628
With little step at a time.

01:10:15.753 --> 01:10:17.546
Stop right there.
-What happened?

01:10:17.671 --> 01:10:20.257
My parrot is dying.
-Oh, no.

01:10:20.382 --> 01:10:22.468
But he is not dying.
-Yeah!

01:10:29.099 --> 01:10:31.185
It\'s a day to make people aware of...

01:10:31.268 --> 01:10:34.980
the need to protect forested areas.

01:10:35.105 --> 01:10:41.195
Thanks to trees and nature,
thanks to that, we enjoy good health.

01:10:41.320 --> 01:10:48.953
Do not use herbicides or fungicides that
to continues to contaminate our mother earth.

01:10:49.078 --> 01:10:54.124
The world is full of people
who want to pick the fruits...

01:10:54.250 --> 01:10:57.670
of the trees they never planted.

01:10:57.795 --> 01:11:03.384
Let\'s come back as changed people.
With a different mentality and may God almighty...

01:11:03.467 --> 01:11:08.931
may he keep us and protect us and bring us back
here again and may the weather be good.

01:11:30.077 --> 01:11:36.709
My grandparents are from Timba,but they have
land. They grew up here almost all of them.

01:11:36.834 --> 01:11:39.378
That\'s where my mother came from and so on.

01:11:39.503 --> 01:11:41.964
I mean, your mom is from here right?
She lived here.

01:11:42.089 --> 01:11:43.465
Yes, my mom lived here.

01:13:13.097 --> 01:13:18.894
The indigenous Nasa and Misak
construct and follow a “Life Plan” per reserve.

01:13:19.311 --> 01:13:25.359
The community aims to strengthen
their autonomous leadership,

01:13:25.651 --> 01:13:30.531
and generate political, economic,
social and cultural development.

01:13:33.283 --> 01:13:38.664
Thanks to the mitigation strategies
developed during the COVID19 pandemia,

01:13:39.039 --> 01:13:45.254
the community managed to maintain
infection numbers low.

01:13:48.715 --> 01:13:53.762
Despite efforts to avoid recruitment,

01:13:54.054 --> 01:13:59.435
at least 271 youngsters were reported
as recruited by armed groups in the North of Cauca.

01:14:00.102 --> 01:14:07.526
The official numbers are generally considered
subestimations of the real numbers.
