Wars and conflicts shape societies worldwide. In the last two decades, Latin America's truth and reconciliation projects, and its attempts at transitional justice, have often been used as model for states just entering their own post-conflict scenarios. Latin Americanist scholarship has shown, however, that the voices of marginalized peoples have too often been absent from official 'truths'. Creative methodologies have been adopted in order to integrate the voices of women, indigenous people, young people and rural residents into discussions about the history of wars. In order to foster an inclusive transition, we start from the premise that it is essential to amplify voices from such local initiatives working with marginalized populations (indigenous, women, youth, rural). While existing initiatives have been important they have in most cases remained isolated from one another, impeding the exchange of know-how and knowledge. As a result, their chances of having an impact in the struggles over the narratives of the war in order to achieve reconciliation and peacebuilding, can be limited.This project proposes to tackle these challenges by creating a space for dialogue across methodologies, actors and countries regarding the methodological challenges and possibilities, the alternative narratives that subvert the already established accounts of the war and the strategies for the preservation of these non-official stories.We are an interdisciplinary team: the PI is Professor Matthew Brown, a historian of Latin America based in the School of Modern Languages, and the CI is Dr Karen Tucker a political scientist based in the School of Sociology, Politics and International Studies. The RAs are Goya Wilson, a Peruvian researcher who has recently completed a PhD on memory in the Graduate School of Education at UoB; and Maria-Teresa Pinto, a Colombian researcher who is working on a doctoral thesis - supervised by the CI - on historical memory in the Colombian peace process. Our diverse backgrounds are fused together in this project, which aims to bring to bear the extraordinary moment taking place right now in the Colombian peace process, to compare it with the Peruvian experience, and to share experiences and innovations globally.We will identify outstanding examples of projects in Peru and Colombia that have been able to amplify the voices of marginalized peoples, and to incorporate their stories into historical memory. Projects such as:-Colombia:1) Ruta Pacifica. 2) Hijas e hijos por la Identidad y la Justicia contra el Olvido y el Silencio (Daughters & sons for Identity & Justice against Oblivion & Silence).. 3) National Movement of Victims of State Crimes (MOVICE). 4) Association of Indigenous Councils Nasa Çxhãçxha. 5) Peace Village of San José de Apartadó (Comunidad de Paz de San José de Apartadó) Peru:1) Lugar de la Memoria, la Tolerancia y la Inclusión Social (LUM). 2) Movimiento Ciudadano Para Que No Se Repita (PQNSR). 3) Coordinadora Regional de Organizaciones de Victimas de la Violencia Politica en Ayacucho (CORAVIP)4) Coordinadora Contra la Impunidad (CCI). 5) H.I.J.O.S. de Peru (a.k.a. HIJXS). We will bring participants from those projects into dialogue by means of a three-day Peace Festival, to be held in Cartagena de Indias, in Colombia. Participants will present their own project, learn about other complementary projects, and discuss how to overcome the challenges that face their work and the endeavours of projects like them.We will analyse the discussions from the Peace Festival, and disseminate our findings through academic articles, traditional press and broadcast media, and through social media. The lessons learned will help Colombians and Peruvians to identify marginalized voices, and to incorporate their stories into post-conflict societies.

战争和冲突塑造了世界各地的社会。在过去的二十年里，拉丁美洲的真相与和解项目及其在过渡时期司法方面的尝试经常被刚刚进入冲突后局势的国家用作典范。然而，拉丁美洲学者的研究表明，官方的“真相”中往往没有边缘化民族的声音。为了将妇女、土著人民、青年和农村居民的声音纳入关于战争历史的讨论，采取了创造性的方法。为了促进包容性的过渡，我们从这样一个前提出发，即必须扩大与边缘化群体（土著、妇女、青年、农村）合作的地方举措的声音。虽然现有的举措很重要，但在大多数情况下，它们仍然相互孤立，阻碍了专门技能和知识的交流。因此，他们在战争叙事斗争中产生影响以实现和解与建设和平的机会可能有限，本项目建议通过创造一个跨方法、行为者和国家的对话空间来应对这些挑战，讨论方法上的挑战和可能性，颠覆已经建立的战争叙述的替代叙述，以及保存这些非官方故事的策略。我们是一个跨学科的团队：PI是现代语言学院的拉丁美洲历史学家Matthew Brown教授，CI是社会学，政治和国际研究学院的政治学家Karen Tucker博士。研究助理是秘鲁研究员戈亚·威尔逊（Goya Wilson）和哥伦比亚研究员玛丽亚-特雷莎·平托（Maria-Teresa Pinto），前者最近在哥伦比亚大学教育研究生院获得了记忆学博士学位，后者正在撰写一份关于哥伦比亚和平进程中的历史记忆的博士论文，论文由文化中心指导。在这个项目中，我们的不同背景融合在一起，目的是利用哥伦比亚和平进程中目前发生的特殊时刻，将其与秘鲁的经验进行比较，并在全球分享经验和创新。我们将确定秘鲁和哥伦比亚能够扩大边缘化人民声音的项目的杰出范例，并将他们的故事融入历史记忆。哥伦比亚：1）Ruta Pacifica。2)Hijas e hijos por la Identidad y la Justicia contra el Olvido y el Silencio（Daughters & Sons for Identity & Justice against Oblivion & Silence）.. 3)国家犯罪受害者全国运动（MOVICE）。4)土著理事会协会。5)秘鲁圣何塞德Apartadó和平村（科穆尼达德和平社区）：1）Lugar de la Memoria，la Tolerancia y la Inclusión Social（LUM）. 2)公民帕拉不承认运动。3)阿亚库乔政治暴力受害者区域援助协调中心（CORAVIP）4）打击有罪不罚协调中心（CCI）。5)H.I.J.O.S.秘鲁（又名：HIJXS）。我们将在哥伦比亚的卡塔赫纳德印第亚斯举办为期三天的和平节，使这些项目的参与者进行对话。参与者将展示自己的项目，了解其他互补项目，并讨论如何克服他们的工作和类似项目所面临的挑战。我们将分析和平节的讨论，并通过学术文章，传统媒体和广播媒体以及社交媒体传播我们的研究结果。所吸取的经验教训将有助于秘鲁人和秘鲁人发现边缘化的声音，并将他们的故事纳入冲突后社会。
