Colombia.

Targeted and unprotected: Take action for Colombia’s religious leaders.

‘Colombia has returned to levels of violence reminiscent of the darkest days of the country’s decades-long internal conflict.’ – Anna Lee Stangl, CSW’s Director of Advocacy and Americas Team Leader

Violence has intensified, yet religious leaders have been left exposed.

In 2023, the government removed them from its list of vulnerable groups — cutting off access to vital protection programmes. Since December 2024, 11 religious leaders have been kidnapped or killed.

It doesn’t have to be this way. The Colombian government can help shield religious leaders by restoring and strengthening these protections.

That’s what we are calling for — and you can be part of it. Sign the petition and demand protection for religious leaders: csw.org.uk/TotalPeace

Over 900 people have already added their name. Will you help us reach 1,000?

You can also download resources to help your church or small group get involved.
