As Cebine does everyday, each family in her community grows their own food. They, themselves are in charge of planting the food and cooking. However, their harvest has been affected by the presence of non-state armed groups and the anti-personnel mines they have left in the territory.
“Men go to the mountains to look for turkey, tatabro, deer and so on. Now, we are not working because of the armed groups"' says Cebine.
This indigenous community made up of wooden houses located on a plain on the shores of one of the rivers from Antioquia, on the Colombian Pacific Coast. The families live surrounded by green mountains covered with tropical forest that make it a paradise. The Embera Katío indigenous community lives here, where the ancestral culture permeates all aspects of the lives of its inhabitants.
In 2022, the community is going through situations of confinement and displacement due to the armed conflict that persists in Colombia.
Despite the peace agreement in Colombia, hundreds of thousands of people continue to be forced to stay in their homes without access to food, water, education or health for days and months as a war strategy.
