Tensiones entre comunidades indígenas Y empresa derivada de la actividad extractiva: análisis de casos bajo la óptica de los derechos humanos

Abstract

This document addresses the impact that oil activity has had on the guarantee and safeguarding of the human rights of indigenous communities in the municipality of Puerto Gaitán in the department of Meta. An analysis is made of the tensions that exist between the extractive companies and the communities settled in Puerto Gaitán, showing that the hydrocarbon companies that operate in the area do not implement due diligence policies, in particular aimed at preventing impacts on the environment and protecting the rights of indigenous communities.
