Canadians across the country call for an end to killings of Colombian rights workers

In Colombia almost 700 rights defenders and over 135 former FARC members have been assassinated since January 2016. Those killed include community leaders, teachers, trade unionists, representatives of victims and survivors groups, and water and forest defenders.
On July 26, 2019 CoDev and our Canadian partners joined thousands around the world to draw attention to the wave of violence against Colombian social leaders, and to call for an end to it.
CoDev shares this compilation of photos as a memoir of some of the actions that took place in Canada to honour the invaluable work that social leaders and human rights defenders do for life and peace in Colombia. https://youtu.be/Q2lep3MNUxs
