Social assistance and reparations delivered in La Guajira

In the department of La Guajira, Colombia, various social and reparative initiatives have been implemented to support vulnerable populations. In the rural area of Mingueo, Dibulla, more than 160 people participated in a social development day led by professional officers of the military reserve from the 6th Mechanized Infantry Battalion Cartagena. This initiative provided medical assessments, dental services, psychological support, medication, and food supplies, alongside educational and recreational activities for children and adolescents.

Additionally, the Victims Unit conducted two sessions to deliver compensation letters to 180 victims of the armed conflict across the region. This process involved an investment exceeding 1,403 million pesos. The first session in Urumita provided 85 letters totaling over 651 million pesos to residents of several municipalities, including San Juan del Cesar and El Molino. A second session in the Riohacha District distributed 95 letters worth more than 751 million pesos to individuals from the central and northern parts of the department.
