FARC rebels from Colombia’s armed conflict prepare to return to civilian life

As fifty years of fighting end in Colombia, FARC rebels are trying to resume a normal life. But while they may be laying down their arms, many are not giving up the fight. In 2016, Colombia's government and the FARC rebel group signed a peace agreement to end their decades-long conflict after years of negotiation. As a result some 6700 guerrillas are expected to disarm. The rebels will have a chance to form new dreams but they will also face new challenges. Many FARC members claim that while they will surrender their weapons, they won’t change their ideology. And transitioning back into society could take years. Some estimates claim there could be up to 15,000 FARC members who will re-integrate into civilian life. They include former combatants, jailed guerrillas and militias who were working in the cities.
