September 2006 saw the initiation of the “municipal development plans and human rights” project, which is co-financed by the European Commission. Its aim is to integrate a human rights perspective into the development plans of several municipalities throughout the country and 10 districts within Bogotá, and to facilitate the participation of civil society. This project has supported the Vice-President’s Human Rights Programme and the programme implemented by the Ministry of the Interior and Justice since 2003. G.
