  • The Venezuelan Crisis, Regional Dynamics and the Colombian Peace Process by David Smilde and Dimitris Pantoulas Executive Summary
    Report August 2016 The Venezuelan crisis, regional dynamics and the Colombian peace process By David Smilde and Dimitris Pantoulas Executive summary Venezuela has entered a crisis of governance that will last for at least another two years. An unsustainable economic model has caused triple-digit inflation, economic contraction, and widespread scarcities of food and medicines. An unpopular government is trying to keep power through increasingly authoritarian measures: restricting the powers of the opposition-controlled National Assembly, avoiding a recall referendum, and restricting civil and political rights. Venezuela’s prestige and influence in the region have clearly suffered. Nevertheless, the general contours of the region’s emphasis on regional autonomy and state sovereignty are intact and suggestions that Venezuela is isolated are premature. Venezuela’s participation in the Colombian peace process since 2012 has allowed it to project an image of a responsible member of the international community and thereby counteract perceptions of it as a “rogue state”. Its growing democratic deficits make this projected image all the more valuable and Venezuela will likely continue with a constructive role both in consolidating peace with the FARC-EP and facilitating negotiations between the Colombian government and the ELN. However, a political breakdown or humanitarian crisis could alter relations with Colombia and change Venezuela’s role in a number of ways. Introduction aimed to maximise profits from the country’s oil production. During his 14 years in office Venezuelan president Hugo Together with Iran and Russia, the Venezuelan government Chávez Frias sought to turn his country into a leading has sought to accomplish this through restricting produc- promotor of the integration of Latin American states and tion and thus maintaining prices.

  • Targeting Civilians in Colombia's Internal Armed

It also shows that the government’s claim that the country is marching resolutely towards peace does not reflect the reality of continued A M violence for many Colombians. N E S T Y At the heart of this report are the stories of Indigenous communities I N T decimated by the conflict, of Afro-descendant families expelled from E R their homes, of women raped and of children blown apart by landmines. N A The report also bears witness to the determination and resilience of T I O communities defending their right not to be drawn into the conflict. N A L A blueprint for finding a lasting solution to the crisis in Colombia was put forward by the UN more than 10 years ago. However, the UN’s recommendations have persistently been ignored both by successive Colombian governments and by guerrilla groups.

So what are the differences with the Relief and Rehabilitation The UK Human Rights Act and Refugees 5 Network that you have seen around for the past six years, with its Newsletter, Changing Places: Bosnians in Britain 6 Network Papers and Good Practice Reviews? There are new names, new designs The Roll Back Xenophobia Campaign and a lower full annual subscription price. But rest assured, there is more continuity in South Africa 9 than rupture, and the changes we are making are intended to increase our value to you. Quality and Accountability The RRN Newsletter has now become Humanitarian Exchange. Why? Well, we dropped Sphere at the End of Phase II 11 ‘Newsletter’ because some of you found the label confusing since it actually covered a Using Sphere: Oxfam in West Africa 13 fully-fledged magazine. ‘Humanitarian’ better indicates the range of subjects we work Sphere in India: Experiences and Insights 15 on, which go well beyond relief and rehabilitation. The name change also signals more Gendering Sphere 17 clearly a commitment to certain values and principles, including those of humanity, The Humanitarian Accountability Project 19 compassion and a sense of service to distressed people.
