As part of the Applied Workshop in International Development at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA), the International Organization of Migration (IOM) contracted a team of seven students to perform an independent evaluation of the IOM contributions to the problem of child soldiers in Colombia. The Team conducted a process evaluation on the following: 1) IOM’s contribution to the strengthening of the Instituto Colombiano de Bienestar Familiar (ICBF) Support Program for Ex-combatant Children; 2) IOM’s contribution to an increased understanding of the legal process and rights of former child soldiers; 3) IOM’s prevention activities and programs for indigenous youth; and 4) The contingency plan for future mass demobilizations of child soldiers.
