Despite the Death Threat
farmers in Colombia Plant a Seed of HopeIn the Colombian conflict region in the
northern province of Urabá the peace village San José
de Apartado with 1350 inhabitants fights non-violently for its
survival. Since its foundation on March 23rd 1997 ,178 farmers, men,
women and children have been murdered some of them very brutally. The
inhabitants do not give up, to the contrary: they build up a future
model for an autonomous and peaceful life, a seed of hope for
Colombia in a region which is heavily fought for military, police,
paramilitary and guerrilla groups. They need international
protection. Please help!
