Abstract
More than fifty years of conflict in Colombia has left a country with
many needs. This article analyzes how Science, Technology, and
Innovation (STI) can contribute to improving communities affected by
violence in a post-conflict stage. This paper begins with an
introduction focused on the processes of the generation of violence and
the peace agreement, following the role of the UN in the post-conflict
stage. A conceptual analysis of the actors involved in Science,
Technology, and Innovation activities is also presented
with one analysis of the activities of STI that can contribute to the
post-conflict, continuing with some financing strategies for the
activities of STI and a brief description of the legal framework STI
against the post-conflict. The paper concludes with some recommendations
and opportunities in this new era for the country.
