Title Gender Justice in Territorial Land Management: An Eco-Justice Peacebuilding Analysis of Sierra Nevada-Perija's PDET Zone
Summary Amidst Colombia's post-conflict transition, this thesis delves into the intersection of gender,land management, and peacebuilding, focusing on the Participatory Development Programs with Territorial Focus (PDETs). Specifically, it scrutinizes the PDET of Sierra Nevada-Perijá to assess how it integrates women's involvement and a gendered approach to territorial land management, thereby influencing post-conflict reconstruction. Guided by an eco-justice peacebuilding framework, this research investigates the mechanisms through which PDETs incorporate women into land reform processes, evaluates their efficacy in promoting gender justice, and explores the broader ramifications of gendered environmental management on post-conflict stability. The study addresses the pressing need to understand how PDETs tackle the intricate challenges of Colombia's post-conflict transition, particularly regarding territorial and environmental rights. It seeks to discern whether these initiatives afford women in the Sierra Nevada-Perijá region opportunities for engagement in territorial planning, crucial for fostering inclusive and resilient peacebuilding. Furthermore, by focusing on the intersectionality of gender, environmental justice, and transitional justice within the context of Sierra Nevada-Perijá, this research bridges a critical gap in existing literature. It not only contributes nuanced insights for more effective policies and practices in post-conflict
Colombia but also underscores the significance of inclusive environmental peacebuilding and women's participation therein for sustainable peace and development.In essence, this thesis aims to offer a comprehensive analysis of gender dynamics within PDETs, shedding light on their role in shaping post-conflict landscapes and advancing gender inclusive peacebuilding agendas in Colombia.
