My name is Isabel Güiza-Gómez and I’m a PhD candidate in Political Science and Peace Studies at the University of Notre Dame (U.S.), a doctoral affiliate to the Notre Dame Violence and Transitional Justice Lab hosted at the Kellogg Institute for International Studies, and a research associate to Dejusticia (Colombia). My research agenda includes rural-poor mobilization, land policies and conflict, peacebuilding, and transitional justice. My doctoral dissertation investigates why land redistribution is forged in civil war political transitions by diving into the Colombian case for the 1982-2004 and 2012-2024 periods.
Some of the works I have published are:
¿Corregir o distribuir para transformar? Una concepción de justicia para la política púbica de restitución de tierras de Colombia, en co-autoría con David José Blanco Cortina y Camila Santamaría Chaparro. Link: https://www.libreriaunal.com/libro/corregir-o-distribuir-para-transformar_4909
