9. Spotlight: Decree 2027 (2016) & the formation of the National Reincorporation Council

Abstract

The final set of peace accords signed on November 24th of last year includes a provision for the creation of a National Reincorporation Council (CNR, by its Spanish acronym). This Spotlight analyzes the role of the CNR, based on the content of Decree 2027, which gave the CNR legal standing at the end of last year. The Council will be responsible for a significant portion of the processes related to the reincorporation of former FARC-EP guerrillas into social, economic, and political life in Colombia.
