This book is not about issues of internal displacement as a theme, it is about the real lives of real people. it is about communicating personal experiences, biographies and the impact of displacement which complements more quantitative and factual data. The focus is on capturing the feelings, tones of voice and the spirit behind the vivid experiences. By publishing this book, the internal Displacement Monitoring Center (IDMC) and Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) hope to raise awareness and new insights of the often-overlooked plight of some 3.8 million people internally displaced by armed conflict and human rights violations in Colombia. it is fundamental for the displaced themselves and for the prospects for peace that experiences of this nature are recognized by others, and particularly by the international community.
