Colombia's City of Women

Available for over a year

In northern Colombia, survivors of a decades long conflict have decided to take their destiny into their own hands. Fighting between the state, left-wing rebels and some right-wing paramilitaries has left nearly seven million people displaced. It's been ten years since a group of women got together and decided to create a new kind of community, one where the women were - at last - in control. BBC's Natalio Cosoy reports from the 'City of Women'.
