In their eleventh Report of the Commission for Follow-up and Monitoring of the Victims Law, the Office of the Attorney General of the Nation, the Ombudsman, the Comptroller General of the Republic and representatives of the National Victims Roundtable highlighted that the collective reparation model continues to present serious shortcomings in the implementation of the care route and in compliance with the comprehensive plans established to achieve this end.

The report indicates that the resources allocated to the Public Policy for Victims continue to be insufficient for the assistance, care and comprehensive reparation of the 9,737,008 registered victims, especially in terms of income generation, access to land, housing, health and education.

Since Law 1448 of 2011 came into force, 1,368,269 victims have been compensated, a figure that corresponds to 14% of the 9,409,808 victims who are eligible for compensation.

In this regard, the calculations made estimate that $303.9 billion in constant 2024 are required to comply with the assistance, care and comprehensive reparation measures contemplated in Law 1448 of 2011 (Victims Law) between 2024 and 2031.

And within the resources required for assistance, care and comprehensive reparation of the victim population, the following stand out: housing with $118 billion, individual and collective compensation with $83.6 billion, income generation with $36.8 billion, minimum subsistence with $12.9 billion and higher education with $7.1 billion.

The Commission has also monitored the progress and challenges in the dialogue and negotiation processes that the Government is carrying out with illegal armed structures, which have not been homogeneous, generating humanitarian impacts in each territory and affecting the rights of the civilian population.

The main consequences include the tightening of patterns of population and territorial control over communities, as well as an increase in extortion, kidnapping and forced recruitment.
