Community-Oriented Reintegration of Ex-Combatants - CORE

CORE works with government entities to develop tools and methodologies that support the implementation of these laws. The program's goal is to pass these instruments to the agencies after a period defined by the entities involved. In the first quarter of 2015, CORE's objective was to support the Colombian Government in the implementation of laws related to the reintegration and legal status of ex-combatants. The program worked with government entities to develop tools and methodologies that support the implementation of these laws. CORE's goal was to pass these instruments to the agencies after a period defined by the entities involved. The Tracking, Monitoring, and Evaluation System (SAME) team provided technical support to assess psychosocial readiness for reintegration. This quarter, 984 IECC surveys were conducted throughout the country, and 52% of the participants (515) fulfilled the requisites of the instruments required by the ACR to continue with the graduation process. The ACR reported 43 people graduating from the reintegration process in this quarter. In total, 9,081 people have graduated from the reintegration process, of whom 6,997 (77%) have formal or informal employment. In terms of economic reintegration, implementation of the "Integrated Employment Intervention Route" continued. This methodology aims to support demobilized individuals in exploring and finding opportunities in the job market through activities such as identification of job vacancies, vocational assessment, occupational orientation, job engagement, and monitoring and support for individuals in the process of reintegration who are professionally engaged with businesses. The toolkit for this methodology was delivered to the ACR for final review. In the realization of Intermediate Result 2: "Operational Mechanisms to Establish Definitive Legal Status of Ex-combatants," projects continue to support the various sub-units of the Justice and Peace Unit in the Attorney General's office. These activities, which are in their final phases, focus on land restitution, facilitating sentencing in high-priority cases, strengthening the ACR's capacity to identify and return human remains to victims' families, complementing the construction of patterns of macro-criminality with similar investigations of macro-victimization, and strengthening regional work in the sub-units. The Exhumations sub-unit analyzed 164 DNA samples from victims' remains and family members, of which 13 were found to be compatible. The sub-unit also identified 15 human remains that were returned to victims' families. The sub-unit also conducted 12 exhumations and identified 10 human remains that were returned to victims' families.
