Tejiendo Paz (Weaving Peace) is an educational project that seeks to raise awareness about the different types of social conflicts that exist in Colombia. To achieve this goal, we will hold workshops, podcasts, discussions, and create a social media account. These activities will take place in the second half of 2025 and seek to reach the Javeriana University community through workshops and discussions, and Colombians through podcasts and social media presence. With this, we seek to contribute to UN SDGs 16 and 17.
