Taking steps to rebuild trust in Colombia

A trust-building exercise carried out last year in Colombia has helped raise the profile of how businesses can contribute to development, peace-building and human rights in the country - but much more work still needs to be done...IBLF's findings are contained in a new report...The dialogues produced agreement from all sectors that business does have a key role in the peace-building process in Colombia. But...all the stakeholders who attended the dialogues now need to work to overcome the historic levels of mistrust that at present hinder the contributions that companies operating in Colombia could make. [also refers to Coca-Cola]
