  • The Inclusion and Rights of Female Victims of Conflict in Peace Negotiations and Agreements
    FROM FEAR TO FREEDOM: THE INCLUSION AND RIGHTS OF FEMALE VICTIMS OF CONFLICT IN PEACE NEGOTIATIONS AND AGREEMENTS VERONICA J. SCHILB* After more than 50 years of internal conflict, a young, Western Colombian woman reflected on the nature of freedom as her country was finally on the brink of peace.1 Yolanda Perea Mosquera recalled riding through the Colombian countryside on her horse as a child, an experience that she now perceives as embodying freedom.2 In contrast to that freedom, Mosquera has also faced complete terror as a result of Colombia’s civil war.3 When she was just an 11-year old girl, a masked guerilla fighter broke into Mosquera’s home and raped her.4 Shortly after, Mosquera suffered from a miscarriage, not knowing she had even been pregnant.5 Mosquera’s mother then reported the assault of her daughter, which resulted in retribution against her.6 Mosquera was called a liar, and guerilla fighters came to her home.7 In her last words to her daughter, Mosquera’s mother instructed her to take care of her brothers.8 Then, the guerilla fighters shot her.9 Mosquera yearned for revenge, like many victims of Colombia’s war.10 She pondered and plotted ways to get that revenge on her abusers, but she eventually realized that she could not go through with them.11 Instead, Mosquera and others like her are left to hope that the government will acknowledge the crimes against them and implement some level of justice.12 Although the likelihood of punishment and justice for the specific crime committed against Mosquera is slim, an encounter * J.D.
