Abstract

The article presents the process of territorial reconfiguration by women members of organizations of victims of forced displacement, in the neighborhoods of the middle fringe of the commune 3 Manrique, highlighting from the stories of the leaders, their organizational processes and resistance in the midst of an adverse context, to make their demands real as victims of the internal conflict in the claim for their right to the city and full participation in the decision` scenarios. Thus, the text approaches us to the understanding of the forms of insertion that made possible the local integration of entire families and neighborhoods in the city of Medellín, especially in the case of commune 3, evidencing an essential route for the reparation processes of the victims of the exile who rebuilt their home in the great Colombian cities.
