Since its creation, it has promoted the training of young social scientists in the practice of research with, by and for people[1]. Thus, it brings together various paradigmatic and methodical approaches from the social and human sciences (political, structural, historical, socio-economic, participatory action, educational and social intervention research) together with the documentation and continuous dissemination of information on human rights violations [2].

Objectives

edit

The Cinep/PPP bet comes to life through the following actions:

  • High quality research oriented to the solution of relevant public problems.
  • Participatory local research and design of methodologies for the social appropriation of knowledge.
  • Documentation of human rights violations and breaches of international humanitarian law; environmental and territorial rights; social struggles, peace initiatives and social dialogue, among others. Reports based on our documentation have been used by national and international high courts, international cooperation agencies, multilateral organisations, public entities, universities and think tanks.
  • Design of pedagogical tools applying differential gender, ethnic, age and territorial approaches.
  • Technical and strategic accompaniment to communities for the enforceability of human, territorial and environmental rights.
  • Judicial representation of ethnic groups in the framework of transitional justice.
  • Construction and accompaniment of spaces for dialogue and mediation, multi-factor dialogues and multi-level dialogues.
  • Accompaniment and monitoring of local peace initiatives and territorial implementation of the Havana Peace Agreement (Cuba).

History

edit

  • In 1966, CIAS-CINEP was consolidated as a group of Jesuits and lay people who sought to complement the work of the National Coordination of Social Action with research and teaching. [1], positioning itself as a centre for research and social action.
  • In 1972, the legal status of CIAS-CINEP was recognised (Ministry of Justice, Resolution No. 1960 of 1972).
  • On 8 October 1976, the amendment to change the name of CIAS to CINEP was accepted. [3]
  • In 2000, the Peace Programme of the Society of Jesus, established in 1987 [4], s and integrated CINEP into the Centre for Research and Popular Education/Programme for Peace: Cinep/PPP .

Areas of work

edit

They are divided into two programmes, each with four lines of work. The first is the Conflict, State and Peace Programme, which comprises the lines of State and Peace Building in Conflict Regions, Ethnic Transitional Justice (before 2024 known as Territorial Management) and Education for Citizenship and Peace. The second is the Mobilisation, Human Rights and Interculturality Programme, which articulates the lines of Social Movements, Land and Territory, Interculturality and Human Rights.  

It has also participated in collective processes such as the Colombian Observatory for Integral Development, Citizen Coexistence and Institutional Strengthening (Odecofi)[6], the Peace Programme of the Society of Jesus[4], and the Development and Peace Programme of Magdalena Medio, among others.  

General Information System (SIG)

edit

During its trajectory, Cinep/PPP has documented events and happenings through the Monitoring System of Spaces for Dialogue and Negotiation - SINEDI, the Database of Social Struggles in Colombia; the Database of Human Rights and Political Violence; and the Datapaz Database. This documentation has been converted into the General Information System (SIG).

Library Specialised in Social Sciences

edit

The Cinep/PPP Specialized Library in Social Sciences has a bibliographic and audiovisual collection of 39,784 volumes, including books, documents, journals and videos.[7] The library is divided into eight thematic groups: books, documents, magazines and videos.

It is divided into eight thematic groups:  

  • Cinep/PPP Books
  • Cinep/PPP Documents
  • General Collection
  • General documents
  • Jesuit Refugee Service Latin America and the Caribbean Collection
  • Reference
  • Newspaper library
  • Video library

Of the aforementioned groups, three form the Foundation's patrimonial collection: Cinep/PPP books, Cinep/PPP documents and the video library.

History Library[8]

edit

The Cinep/PPP library began in 1962 at CIAS, when the centre's team of Jesuits moved their personal collections to their offices so that these materials could serve as bibliographic support for their research. These collections included titles on religion, religious sociology, church social doctrine and economics. As the research activities of CIAS expanded, the collection was extended to include topics such as politics and history, and at the same time a physical space was allocated to centralise the information unit. At that time there was a reading room and the services of external consultation and home lending were offered to the people who worked at the centre and through them to university students and people interested in the country's social development programmes.

In 1976, the year in which CIAS-CINEP changed its name to CINEP and moved to its headquarters at 33rd and 5th, the library was already providing a more formal service to external users. As the work fronts of the centre expanded, the information needs of the users grew and, consequently, the specialisation of the collections. In the 1980s, the volume of information, the specificity of the subjects, the permanent specialisation of the collections and the demand for information both internally and externally, created the need to hire staff specialised in the universal techniques of acquisition, processing, organisation and dissemination of information.

The current process of shaping the collections and the services offered was oriented towards the institution's activities and research, to the point of positioning the Cinep/PPP library as one of the best specialised libraries in the area of social sciences.

Publishing House

edit

Since its consolidation as a CIAS, the centre has participated in the publication of different documents that have allowed it to undertake an editorial project from the Publications Office.[9] The first research papers published allowed the consolidation of themes and issues that ended up becoming Cinep/PPP's lines of work.[9]
