The organization has also been involved in promoting the rights of the Rio Atrato, which was declared a subject of rights by the Colombian Constitutional Court in 2016. The court's decision recognized the Rio Atrato as a living being with rights, and ordered the government to take measures to protect the river and its ecosystem. The organization's work is guided by a commitment to promoting peace, development, and environmental sustainability in the Atrato region. The organization works closely with various stakeholders, including government agencies, civil society organizations, and indigenous communities, to promote the rights of the Rio Atrato and the communities that depend on it. The organization's efforts are also supported by various international organizations, including USAID, which has provided funding and technical assistance to support the implementation of the PDET and other initiatives. Overall, the Consejo Comunitario Mayor de la Asociación Campesina Integral del Atrato - COCOMACIA is a key player in promoting peace, development, and environmental sustainability in the Atrato region, and its work has significant implications for the region's communities and the environment.
