Abstract
Description
A partir de la Sentencia T-025 de 2004, la Corte Constitucional establece un marco para la garantía del goce efectivo de derechos de la población víctima de desplazamiento forzado, cuyo objetivo es el establecimiento y seguimiento a las obligaciones del Estado para con dicha población. Las obligaciones comprenden garantizar: 1) bienes y acceso a servicios; 2) reconocimiento étnico y de género y 3) libertad de asociación para la exigencia y reivindicación de sus derechos. En ese sentido, lo proferido por la Corte Constitucional tiene como propósito hacer efectivas las garantías para el Goce Efectivo de Derechos (GED) a partir de un Enfoque Diferencial otorgado a la población víctima, existiendo en consecuencia, elementos compartidos entre el enfoque diferencial y el denominado Enfoque de Derechos que constituye un marco conceptual de derecho internacional humanitario que tiene como base la igualdad, la participación política y el acceso a la justicia.
Starting from Judgment T-025, a framework is established for guaranteeing the effective enjoyment of the rights of the victims of forced displacement, the purpose of which is to establish and monitor the State's obligations towards that population. The obligations include ensuring: 1) goods and access to services; 2) ethnic and gender recognition and 3) freedom of association for the demand claim of their rights. In this sense, the purpose of the Constitutional Court is to enforce the guarantees for the Effective Enjoyment of Rights (EER) based on a Differential Approach granted to the victim population, there being therefore elements shared between said differential approach and The so-called Rights Approach that constitutes a conceptual framework of international humanitarian law, which is based on equality, political participation and access to justice.
