Resumen:
It said:
We divide the report into five sections:
A general discussion of Peruvian GSOs over the past two decades with special emphasis on how political violence has affected their work. We will discuss the major incidents involving GSOs and belligerent groups, without being comprehensive. When pertinent, we will also mention other development programs.
1.
A description of the belligerent forces operating in Peru and how they perceive GSOs.
Two case studies: Ayacucho and Puno.
2.
An analysis of GSOs in local settings and the social and political forces which build up around them.
3.
Conclusions.
In addition, the text contains a series of higlighted remarks. We felt that it was more important to highlight them in context rather than to extract them into the conclusions. Due to the length of the text and treatment of the issues, they tended to get lost the case studies and general discussion. The goals are three-fold. This essay aims to provide a systemization of material on centers and political violence with enough background information to aid donor agencies and GSOs to understand the domestic situation and make more informed decisions about funding and executing Peruvian projects. Second, we will draft preliminary conclusions abo ut the situation, with the understanding that they are tentative and prone to simplification. Third, we will hopefully provide a few elements that might be applicable to other societies that are facing armed conflicts. However, it is not the intention of this paper to become a manual for operating in zones of political violence. Local and national conditions vary widely.
