The Truth Is Out – Now What? Discussing the Colombian Truth Commission Report

In 2022, the Colombian Truth Commission published its 10.000-page thick report ‘ Hay Futuro Si Hay Verdad ’. It describes the immense impact the conflict had – and still has – on the victims of the civil war and society as a whole. Together with María Prada (former advisor to the Truth Commission’s President), we discuss the different roles a Truth Commission has, such as dignity for those affected, non-repetition and evidence for justice. We also looked at the difficulties of upholding recommendations while priorities and levels of continuing violence constantly change. Her conversation partner is the Dutch Ambassador to Colombia, Ernst Noorman, who sheds light on the role the international community can play in such peace processes.
