Abstract

The research focuses on the communication strategy the Colombian Truth Commission developed to communicate its findings to society, as a contribution to the wider peace process that has been ongoing in Colombia since 2016. It fits very well with the section’s research interest in the ways in which human rights and transitional justice are, have been, and could be communicated. To engage and exchange with researchers working on this very timely topic would greatly enrich my PhD research and I would be very much interested in contributing to a possible publication afterward.
