The Colombian Truth Commission (Comisión para el Esclarecimiento de la Verdad, la Convivencia y la No Repetición - CEV) was established pursuant to the Peace Agreement between the Colombian Government and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia - FARC). Tasked with uncovering the truth of what happened during the Colombian armed conflict between the Government and the FARC and investigating the causes of the conflict, the CEV adopted an innovative approach in that it did not only work with victims and witnesses in Colombia, but also with the Colombian diaspora.
Join us on the 15th November at 6pm, as we are joined by Peter Drury (former representative of the CEV in the UK), Sandra Dixon (producer and former member of the CEV Support Group in the UK and Ireland) and Nicolas Braguinsky Cascini (film-maker) for the screening of two movies followed by a Q&A session focusing on the work of the CEV in Europe and the UK.
