Fighting in Colombia among left-wing guerrillas, right-wing paramilitaries, drug traffickers and the army has helped to create the largest population of internally displaced people outside Sudan - at least 3.8 million, and growing.
Threatened off their lands, los desplazados leave their simple life of subsistence farming for the harsh, bewildering realities of urban slums. Most don't want to or can't return home, where fear and uncertainty await. What they want is to seguir adelante — to move forward — with dignity and opportunity. In three of Colombia's largest cities, Mercy Corps is lending a hand.
