Abstract

Forced displacement and gender violence are public health problems in Colombia resulting in some phenomena that affect identity, social cohesion and women, thus causing a “feminization of displacement.” Objective: to describe and understand the expressions of the cultural imaginary that maintain or legitimize gender violence against displaced women. In addition, this study also aims to identify the moments that break the violent relationship, in order to develop a "Pedagogical Route Focusing on Self-care". Methodology: a qualitative and descriptive study using grounded theory for data collection and analysis. Eight interviews were conducted with five women aged 26 to 51 who were victims of forced displacement. Results and discussion: a central category emerged; it was called sociocultural substrates supporting violence networks, and describes a network of relationships that interact with gender and political violence and show how women enter into complex networks of violence guided by some socio-cultural imaginaries with precarious resilient mechanisms. Conclusion: a qualitative view contributed to the understanding of the symbolic network and the social meanings of the underlying power logic. It also demonstrated the need for comprehensive care as part of the public health strategy for preventing violence and promoting more democratic relationships that guarantees quality for men and women. relationships necessary to provide quality care to both genders.
