support for state actors, our staff and minorities, as well as entry points for advocacy and partnership building. In Colombia, UNDP alongside OHCHR, engaged victims and civil society in the transitional justice process to address the legacy of violence within the country. I am particularly pleased to be able to listen to you Erlendy and hear your Afrocolombian perspective. Colombia's peace process is especially noteworthy in the unprecedented participation by victims of the conflict. Eight national and regional forums thoroughly engaged civil society by bringing together 10,000 people. Furthermore, the process included 60 conflict victims at the negotiating table, including victims of sexual violence, women, indigenous peoples, afro-descendants and LGBTI persons affected by warring parties. The country office engaged with the Ministry of Women and LGBTI persons to publish a report on "ignored voices". It brings the testimonies of 92 LGBTI victims and a diagnostic about violence suffered by the LGBTI conflict victims, including homicide, sexual violence, stereotyping and displacement.

In addition, these efforts have supported dialogues between refugees and host communities. I would also like to mention the Compact for young people's participation in humanitarian crises, endorsed at the WHS this year, which draws on the Doha 5
