Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

It is of great importance to generate interventions that help ensure greater inclusion and social participation of the population that was and is a victim of the armed conflict, especially in the post-conflict transition in Colombia, and to influence development in the post-accord period through relationships between groups and society. Therefore, the question for this investigation is, what is the effectiveness of a community-based cross-sector network for the management of mental problems and disorders associated with forced displacement due to armed conflict in the commune of Soacha - Cundinamarca, in order to contribute to inclusion and social participation in the post-accord period?

Objective: To design a community-based cross-sector network for the management of mental problems and disorders associated with forced displacement due to armed conflict in the commune of Soacha - Cundinamarca, in order to contribute to inclusion and social participation in the post-accord period in Colombia.
