00:00My name is Camila Pérez, I am the legal representative of the LGBTI Chaparral Diversa.
00:10In the municipality of Chaparral, south of the Department of Tolima,
00:14a territory affected by armed conflict for more than 50 years,
00:18in which our community has been doing visibilization and resistance
00:23to require fundamental rights rights and resist and celebrate life
00:28in the middle of the armed conflict in the south of the Department of Tolima.
00:31One of the most difficult times we have had to live,
00:34people with sexual orientation and gender diverse,
00:37lesbian, trans, bisexual, intersexual, queer, non-binary and gay men,
00:42has been the consecutive assassination
00:45for not to fit in gender and patriarchal ideologies
00:53in which we as a LGBT community in the municipality of Chaparral
00:57to exist, to be able to celebrate life,
01:00to be able to visualize the diversity that exists in our territory.
01:23When we started working in the 2016
01:28with the Chaparral LGBT Diversa Association,
01:31we met with an organization that was strongly debilitated
01:36and fragmented by armed conflict
01:39and by the discrimination that exists in various parts of the country
01:44against LGBT people.
01:47We met with an organization that was primarily led by gay men
01:52but in which the presence of trans women was quite opaque.
01:59We, the LGBT community and Chaparral,
02:01historically we have suffered vulnerable human rights
02:04such as the displacement, the homicide, the mutilations, the disappearance.
02:09We have been resisting since 1999, the 6th of January,
02:15through a platform of resistance
02:17such as the Reynado Trans River Tulumi.
02:29The association, and in particular the women trans,
02:33had stopped doing the Reynado Trans River Tulumi,
02:37which is an exercise of dignity, visibilization,
02:41and recognition of trans people in the municipality.
02:45At the beginning, this event had been stopped
02:50because there was a lot of fear
02:52in front of the consequences that it could have for the organization.
03:01We are demanding guarantees of sexual recognition
03:05in the Department of Tolima.
03:07We have been working from our organization
03:10for eight years ago
03:11to protect spaces of visibilization and protection,
03:16demanding guarantees of fundamental rights
03:18to the government, the legislature,
03:22to the states,
03:24to recognize the rights in the access to justice
03:27and the rights of fundamental rights in the territory.
03:29We, through the law of peace,
03:32we were recognized as a group affected
03:34during the armed conflict.
03:35We are doing a recognition
03:37to the SES,
03:39the Commission for the Exploration of the Truth,
03:41to the Justice Special for the Peace,
03:43also to the Unified Victims.
03:45We are recognized as the fourth collective reparation
03:50in Colombia
03:51and the first in the Department of Tolima.
04:18As a result of this work,
04:22there were two documents,
04:25a written document and a audiovisual,
04:28called Voces Incómodas,
04:30which collected the voices,
04:32the experiences and the dreams
04:34of the LGBTI people of Chaparral
04:38in order to obtain the collective reparation.
04:41From the support of CODES
04:44with the association,
04:45we have at least three achievements.
04:47One,
04:48at this moment,
04:48we have a more strengthened organization,
04:51that has new statutes,
04:53that has new leaderships,
04:55where the voices of trans women
04:56have greater preponderance.
04:59Two,
05:00it is an organization
05:01that knows its rights,
05:04that knows the collective reparation route.
05:06We can gather all the experiences
05:08and memories
05:10that we have had to suffer
05:11here in the municipality of Chaparral,
05:14and we thank CODES
05:16that today
05:16is a guarantee
05:17of the rights protection
05:19for the sexually diverse population
05:20in the municipality of Chaparral,
05:21in the municipality of Chaparral,
05:22in the municipality of Tolima.
