Abstract

Among the diversity of the social movement of women in Colombia, in some women's organizations, we can observe the development of shared stories. Those stories are the product of participation in a war that revolves around the construction of peace in the country. These have been configured through the convergence of personal experiences, and the generation of spaces for resignification. The present study focuses on the analysis of collective narratives formed with three women's organizations in Colombia: Organización Femenina Popular (OFP), La Ruta Pacífica de las Mujeres and Red Nacional de Mujeres (RNM). The objective of this article is to understand the configuration of the narratives of these women's organizations —through their stories and dynamics of action— the confrontation, appropriation and resistance to narrative hegemony.
