CEDLA LECTURE 12/12/25
Researching displacement together: co-producing knowledge with displaced women in Colombia
SPEAKERS: Sonja Marzi, Radboud University and The London School of Economics and Political Science
DISCUSSANT: Conny Roggeband, University of Amsterdam
VENUE: Vox-Pop, Binnengasthuisstraat 9, Amsterdam
This lecture examines the experiences of 24 displaced women in Colombia and the challenges they face while rebuilding their lives in Bogotá and Medellín. Based on co-produced knowledge, it centres the women’s own understandings and descriptions of displacement, rather than treating it as an abstract idea.
CEDLA invites researchers to join its afternoon workshop (13:00–18:00) exploring how a second Trump presidency could shape developments across Latin America and influence how we study the region.
We welcome proposals for brief, seven-minute roundtable contributions. Please send a title and a short abstract of up to 150 words to take part in this timely discussion.
Deadline: 19 December 2025.
