… EDUCATION FOR PEACE …<\/p>\n

The Personer\u00eda Municipal [municipal ombudsman] of Envigado, headed by Virginia L\u00f3pez Fl\u00f3rez, inaugurated the new mediation center for the community, with which they will seek to provide greater solutions when resolving conflicts between citizens.<\/p>\n

“The Center contributes to a culture of peace and tolerance, so that people settle their disputes in a peaceful and respectful way, returning to dialogue and dignified treatment with the help of an impartial third-person mediator. We seek to serve people from strata 1 and 2 who do not have the resources to pay a mediator in a private center,” according to a municipal representative. <\/p>\n

The Mayor of Envigado, Ra\u00fal Cardona, who supported the initiative, was also present at the inauguration. “Now, the Envigade\u00f1os have another place to reconcile which is totally free. Obviously this will greatly improve relations and coexistence and make it easier to solve problems,” the Mayor told 360 Radio.<\/p>\n

“We are the second municipality in the Aburr\u00e1 Valley that has such a center and one of 8 at a national level. This helps ensure that small conflicts do not go to the judicial system and delay it. Whether we like the peace process or not, the country has to start to change and prevent conflicts from escalating into violence,” said Jorge Correa, president of the Envigado Council.<\/p>\n
