冲突后国家（PCC）将其优先重点放在恢复社会经济条件上，并将可持续发展目标置于次要地位。为了为当前冲突后哥伦比亚农村环境可持续性的讨论提供见解，我们分析了七个 PCC 的环境动态。我们发现，（1）森林砍伐和土地利用冲突是冲突和冲突后情景中的常见影响，（2）流离失所人口的返回、土地利用规划的影响力以及对第一产业的依赖是环境变化的常见驱动因素； (3) 冲突后时期自然资源开采趋于加剧。我们根据哥伦比亚当前的环境问题和冲突后环境挑战讨论这些发现。我们的结论是，为了确保冲突后情况下的环境可持续性，哥伦比亚应该在政府与哥伦比亚革命武装力量和平协议中提出的环境目标之外的结构方面采取行动：加强环境机构，整合所有部门的长期环境目标，并减少经济对采掘业的依赖。
Post-conflict countries (PCC) guide their priorities toward restoration of socioeconomic conditions and relegate sustainability objectives to the background. With the aim to provide insights for the current discussion on rural environmental sustainability in today’s post-conflict Colombia, we analyzed the environmental dynamics of seven PCC. We found that (1) deforestation and land use conflicts were frequent impacts in both conflict and post-conflict scenarios, that (2) return of displaced population, the infectiveness of land use planning, and the dependence on the primary sector were frequent drivers of environmental change; and that (3) natural resources extraction tends to be intensified in post-conflict period. We discuss these findings in light of the current environmental problems of Colombia and the post-conflict environmental challenges. We conclude that in order to ensure environmental sustainability in post-conflict scenario, Colombia should act on structural aspects that go beyond the environmental objectives proposed in the peace agreement between the government and FARC: strengthening environmental institutions, integrating long-term environmental objectives across all sectors, and deintensifying the dependence of the economy in the extractive sector.
