The UK is supporting the implementation of Transitional Justice mechanisms required by Colombia’s Peace Agreement with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC)​ through programmes funded by the Conflict Security and Stability Fund (CSSF). This includes helping the Colombian Government establish the Special Jurisdiction for Peace, and promoting the rights of victims, and access to justice for women.
