Tobacco farmers in limbo

The tobacco business should be reduced, not only in Colombia, but also in several places in the world where government is responsible for taking care of public health. However, this significantly affects the farming families who have depended on this product for generations. The exit of the tobacco giant Philip Morris International from the country is a sign of this intensifying situation, as evidenced by researchers from Universidad del Rosario.

The judges of lands: a vital, urgent and hardly recognized job

The land restitution judges, just as the civil judges, involved in proceedings for the formalization of rural property rights are the key figures for implementing public policies aimed at solving one of the central causes of internal conflicts in Colombia.

On the contrary, they are usually oppressed. The research of an international interdisciplinary group took the country as a study case to evidence a situation affecting the whole planet.
