Publicación Resultados y desafíos institucionales del Decreto 0182 del 27 de octubre de 2022 en la recuperación del espacio público de Puerto Berrío, Antioquia, con el caso de las actividades económicas informales en el periodo 2022-2024, y su aporte a la política pública(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Vidal Celorio, Nubia; Ramos Villa, María EugeniaThe purpose of this research is to describe the results and institutional challenges of Decree 0182 of October 27, 2022, regarding the recovery of public space in the municipality of Puerto Berrío, Antioquia, specifically in the case of informal economic activities. To achieve this objective, I will use a qualitative method with an emphasis on a descriptive approach. Techniques such as document review, semi-structured interviews, and participant observation will also be employed. These methods make it possible to reveal that, although the decree has achieved certain successes in recovering some public spaces, challenges remain in terms of implementation, due to the diversity of stakeholders and the degree of social acceptance, particularly because employment opportunities are limited and do not meet the population’s economic needs. Throughout this work, it becomes evident that although Decree 182/22 is well conceived from a legal and documentary standpoint, its implementation has not been effective during the nearly 30 months since its enactment by the municipality. From the outset, it has been clear that the lack of proper control over the use (and in some cases abuse) of public space by the relevant authorities has been inadequate, whether due to a lack of political will, limited institutional capacity, or both. The result so far has been that street vendors—whether mobile, stationary, or semi-stationary—who have not obtained permits or, despite applying to the municipal authorities, have not been granted them, have simply positioned themselves in areas adjacent to those regulated by the Decree. This has led to ongoing conflicts between those who use these public spaces for transit and those seeking to earn a living through their sales. Last but not least, it has been found that, contrary to what the Decree states, many vendors specialize in selling food without the required permits or adherence to good food handling practices, creating an additional health risk for consumers. All of the above constitutes a respectful yet emphatic call to the municipal administration to strictly enforce the provisions of Decree 182/22 by carrying out the necessary control activities. Otherwise, if there are compelling reasons, the areas of application of the decree should be expanded—always from the perspective of seeking a balance between the right to healthy public space and the right to work.Publicación Diseño e implementación de un Dashboard digital para el seguimiento del Plan de Desarrollo Municipal en Remedios, Antioquia(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Mamani Rojas, Carlos Wilfredo; Tabares Botero, Johnnatan René; Ramos Villa, María EugeniaThis study designs and implements a digital dashboard to monitor Remedios, Antioquia’s Municipal Development Plan, addressing unsystematic goal tracking, fragmented budget data, and limited visualization. By automating monitoring, centralizing data, and generating alerts, it enhances accountability and efficiency. Its modular architecture and three indicators—goal achievement, budget execution, and performance analysis—are deployed in three phases to foster data-driven governance.Publicación Barreras estatales y de seguridad en el acceso a la justicia de los sujetos de reparación colectiva LGBTIQ+ : el caso de la Mesa Diversa de la Comuna 8 de Medellín (2019-2024)(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Salgado Pérez, Andrés Felipe; Agudelo Martínez, Juan David; Castañeda Castro, Wilson de JesúsThe LGBTIQ+ Collective of Comuna 8 in Medellín, within the framework of the State’s Transitional Justice policies, is recognized as the first LGBTIQ+ Collective Reparation Subject of its kind in the world. However, this distinction is not sufficient to guarantee access to justice for its members. The coexistence of state and security barriers makes it impossible to fulfill the reparation measures established in the Collective Reparation Plan, limiting their impact in the territory due to the inefficiency of public policy instruments intended for their reparation. This research aims to define the existing obstacles in the execution pathway of the Comprehensive Collective Reparation Plan of the LGBTIQ+ Collective of Comuna 8 that prevent the implementation of the reparation measures. To shed light on the composition of these barriers, a qualitative approach is adopted, supported by Process Tracing as a research method for the inductive breakdown of the problem’s causes. The contribution of this study lies in identifying the causes of the barriers to access to justice, highlighting how they hinder the implementation of reparation actions for LGBTIQ+ collective reparation subjects, and providing recommendations to strengthen mechanisms that enable comprehensive reparation for LGBTIQ+ collectives who are victims of the armed conflict.Ítem La Junta Administradora Local como instrumento de recuperación de las capacidades de estado en la Comuna 1 – Popular de Medellín entre 2016 y 2023(Universidad EAFIT, 2022) Macías Betancur, Farley Jhaír; Uribe López, Mauricio; Vieira Silva, Juan GuillermoA superficial glance at the social and political dynamics of Comuna 1 – Popular of Medellín reveals that, while it is one of the most affected by public order issues and registers some of the highest rates of violence and insecurity, it is also one of the areas with the highest levels of citizen participation in electoral processes, particularly in those for local collegiate authorities (Medellín City Council and Local Administrative Board) and participatory budgeting prioritization. Since the initial settlement in the area in the mid-1960s, there has been a constant struggle between the legitimate and legal state institutions and illegal criminal organizations, which have garnered a certain degree of legitimacy from the community. In the spirit of the 1991 constitutional framers, as reflected in Article 318 of the Political Constitution, Local Administrative Boards, which have been legislatively addressed from Law 136 of 1994 to Law 2086 of 2021, are tasked, among other things, with acting as mediating agents between the State and those organizations that challenge its capacities: coercion, taxation, and the legal handling of conflicts (Tilly, 1992). Taking this task as a priority, the Local Administrative Board of Comuna 1 – Popular of Medellín, during the periods between 2016 and 2023, has played a leading role as an instrument for restoring the State’s capacities in the area. It has significantly managed to ensure that illegal groups, despite acting in collusion and coexistence with state institutions, no longer remain actors who exercise violence, extort, and mediate conflicts between citizens.Ítem Mecanismos de intervención del Estado en el mercado del cannabis medicinal, para el éxito de pequeños y medianos cultivadores, productores y comercializadores(Universidad EAFIT, 2020) Espinosa Echeverry, Alex; Duncan Cruz, GustavoThe following investigation puts forward tools of public action to intervene in the medicinal cannabis market, attempting to contribute to small and medium size farmers, producers and commercializers of medicinal cannabis in Colombia, considering its recent legalization, potential for growth, small and medium size startups may be left behind. In order to clearly define which tools to use, six startups were selected to study their success. Three of them, large corporations: Pharmacielo, Khiron and Cleverleaves, pioneers and leaders in the current market; three of them were small startups linked to associations: Asoprocanna, Miravallenorte, Muiscanabis. In all cases, success factors and obstacles were identified to define the right tools of public action in favor of small and medium size farmers, producers and comercializers of medicinal cannabis. Tools of public action include public investment, better regulation, speed up paperwork for exports, support and promotion of medicinal cannabis education and expansion to international markets.Publicación Análisis cualitativo comparado de los instrumentos procedimentales de políticas que inciden en el proceso de diseño de políticas públicas : el caso de la gobernación de Antioquia 2020 – 2023(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Acosta García, Gerardo David; Silva Diaz, Carlos Iván; Leyva Botero, SantiagoPublicación Limitaciones de la Ley 617 en la categorización de los municipios : el caso de Segovia, Antioquia (2020-2024)(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Posada Giraldo, Leidy Milena; Ramos Villa, María EugeniaLaw 617 of 2000 was created with the purpose of improving administrative management through proper public spending, prioritizing the principle of decentralization, a fundamental pillar of public administration enshrined in the Political Constitution of our country. This law establishes basic criteria for the proper categorization of municipalities. However, the application of this law has revealed various limitations in municipalities such as Segovia, Antioquia, whose economy mainly depends on the mining sector. This categorization presents significant challenges for small municipalities with low administrative capacity due to the restrictions imposed on public spending, among other factors. As a result, different types of challenges arise in local administration, as well as issues related to the fiscal sustainability of territorial entities. The implementation of this law has led to limitations regarding local management capacity, affecting the proper provision of services and strategic decision-making for the population. Additionally, this categorization does not adequately reflect the current economic and financial conditions of various municipalities, imposing restrictions on budget execution or apparent financial resources availability. This study aims to analyze the legal, administrative, and fiscal implications of Law 617 in the municipal administration of Segovia during the 2020-2024 period, identifying the main limitations of this regulation and proposing adjustments to improve its effectiveness in public administration.Publicación La política pública social para los habitantes de calle en Medellín : un estudio de caso sobre la coordinación interinstitucional(Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Bedoya Guzmán, María José; Peláez Arango, Juan RafaelThis research analyzes the barriers to inter-institutional coordination that affect the implementation of the Social Public Policy for the Homeless Population in Medellín, established by Agreement 024 of 2015 and developed through the Strategic Plan 2017–2025. Using a qualitative approach based on semi-structured interviews and document analysis, the study examines the dynamics of interaction among responsible actors, revealing persistent tensions between the policy’s normative framework and its operational implementation. Key findings include functional ambiguity, decision-making conditioned by political hierarchies, informal communication mechanisms, weak accountability practices, and high staff turnover—all of which fragment the institutional capacity for sustained response. The study argues that this lack of coordination is not solely the result of technical failures but stems from an insufficiently consolidated governance structure, where formal co-responsibility does not translate into effective collaborative practices. This situation directly undermines the continuity, impact, and legitimacy of the policy. The findings provide strategic input for the next policy update and contribute to the field by offering an integral and replicable perspective on the challenges of intersectoral governance in complex social policies.Publicación Implicaciones para el municipio de Ciénaga de Oro en materia de seguridad y convivencia ciudadana en caso de adherirse a la posible área metropolitana de la ciudad de Montería(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Argel Ruiz, Yaneth Yesenia; De Arcos Mendoza, Carlos Fernando; Ramos Villa, María EugeniaIn this document we will analyze whether it is favorable or unfavorable for the municipality of Ciénaga de Oro to belong to the possible metropolitan area of Montería, after an agreement was ratified between the mayors of Montería, Cereté, Ciénaga de Oro, San Carlos, San Pelayo and Moñito, at the beginning of 2024. We have shown that there is an increase in the commission of crimes in the Municipality of Ciénaga de Oro, causing serious effects on security and citizen coexistence. This analysis is supported by the collection of qualitative and quantitative data along with a detailed evaluation of institutional and community capacities. In addition, a SWOT matrix will be presented that will help visualize the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of this process, providing a solid basis for informed and objective decision making. In summary, joining a metropolitan area can improve resource efficiency for security and social cohesion, strengthen coordination between agencies, and promote social cohesion through solid institutional support. However, the recommendation for Ciénaga de Oro is that the decision to join the metropolitan area of Montería in case it is created, should primarily consider administrative aspects, land-use planning, transportation, and public service provision, rather than just focusing on security. If these factors prove to be beneficial, improved security would be a positive added value. As indicated by the Police Commander of Ciénaga de Oro, integration could strengthen security, provided that it is strategically planned to meet local needs.Publicación La implementación de la Inteligencia Artificial en el sector público de Colombia : una revisión de literatura(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Figueroa Mosquera, Dolores; Vieira Silva, Juan GuillermoPublicación Lineamientos para la formulación de políticas públicas comunales para municipios de quinta y sexta categoría(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Rodríguez Molina, José David; Guzmán Aguinaga, Brayan Anibal; Ramos Villa, María EugeniaPublicación Bases para la construcción de una política pública para la atención del trastorno del espectro autista en Colombia(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Gómez Moreno, David; Vieira Silva, Juan GuillermoThe present paper means to offer a set of foundational propositions so as to build a Public Policy for Autist Spectrum Disorder (ASD) attention in Colombia. Born from the need to guarantee the fundamental rights of health and education to a vulnerable population with an increasing prevalence rate, and which, within the country, may account for over a million individuals using conservative estimates. While some may state that there are enough tools both in policy and reality, the experience of the ASD community and their families has a tendency to show otherwise, that is to say, the system not only does not protect them but rather discriminates them actively, by not allowing some accomodations that may make their condition more bearable. On that same note, the paper observes the experiences other countries have had, including New Zeland, Spain, and the United States; with three different scopes which may help attend the needs of the community in different ways, all of which answer to their environment. Regarding the viability of the public policy, both in its design and execution, with it being holistic so as to take care of the needs of the people with ASD and their environment, and making it so that they may feel protected and integrated, it is important to remember that the rates of detection and diagnosis are increasing globally, and that, while conservative estimates may show about a million individuals with ASD in Colombia, a more recent estimate shows this number grow up to one-and-a-half million people, which makes it viable from a policy-making perspective so that it is taken into account on the public agenda. Finally, some proposals for foundations are given, regarding the attention to different problems that have been identified via literature review and conversation with the ASD community.Publicación Mujeres rurales y participación en los Programas de Desarrollo con Enfoque Territorial (PDET) : el caso del municipio de Remedios(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) González Arismendy, Sara Isabel; González Sanmartín, Laura Isabel; González Malabet, María AuxiliadoraThe Programas de Desarrollo con Enfoque Territorial (the Territorial Development Programs, PDET for its acronym in Spanish), created within the framework of the 2016 Peace Agreement, were conceived as a critical tool to promote citizen participation in the regions most affected by the armed conflict, with a particular focus on the inclusion of rural women. The present work aims to analyze the contribution of these programs to the effective participation of rural women in the municipality of Remedios, identifying barriers and opportunities for their participation in decision-making scenarios. Through a qualitative methodology, which includes surveys and semi-structured interviews with rural women and critical actors, the research reveals that, although the PDETs have created formal spaces for participation, the influence of women in decision-making remains limited and, in many cases, is just symbolic. The study's contribution lies in analysing the dynamics of female involvement in post-conflict contexts, providing recommendations to strengthen the mechanisms that allow a true transformation in gender equity and the leadership of rural women.Publicación Motivaciones conductuales en la toma de decisión de adquirir créditos informales tipo gota a gota en Medellín(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Barrera Bolaños, Pablo Andrés; Osorio Osorio, Natalia; Rodríguez Valencia, Amalia; Álvarez Franco, Pilar BeatrizPublicación Análisis de los planes integrales de seguridad y convivencia en Medellín (2016-2023) : escenarios de definición y destinación recursos para la gestión de la seguridad y convivencia en el distrito de ciencia, tecnología e innovación de Medellín(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Londoño Sierra, Daniel; Rojas Bermeo, Diana PaolaThis research examines security and coexistence management in Medellín, focusing on the Comprehensive Security and Coexistence Plans (PISCC) and their funding through the Territorial Security Fund (FONSET). Following the 1991 Constitution, security responsibilities and functions were delegated to local entities, supported by regulatory frameworks and tools such as the PISCC and the Territorial Public Order Committee (CTOP), which is responsible for prioritizing and allocating resources for security and coexistence management. The study centers on the periods 2016–2019 and 2020–2023, evaluating whether FONSET resources were managed with rigor and effectiveness in alignment with Medellín's security needs. Additionally, it explores the dynamics among stakeholders and decision-making scenarios within the CTOP, aiming to deepen understanding of the impact of security resources and policies on the city.Publicación Hacia un modelo de asociatividad intra-zonal, para la gestión de Presupuesto Participativo, en el distrito de Medellín(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Ovalle Mazo, Yuricza Ovalle; Ramos Villa, María EugeniaThis document is proposed as an approach to a model of intra-zonal associativity of urban character that outlines the guidelines for the development of an effective strategy in the execution of the resources of the Participatory Budget in the district of Medellin. This model takes as a reference the analysis of the intra-zonal problems of Zone 1, formed by the communes Popular, Santa Cruz, Manrique and Aranjuez, as well as their dynamics of citizen participation. The document starts from the fact that the Territorial Associative Schemes - EAT in force in Colombia and regulated by Law 1454 of 2011 are efficient in their operation for the solution of problems and/or the exploitation of advantages common to the members of the EAT.Publicación Análisis de implementación del CONPES 4086 para la mejora del servicio de acueducto de la población afrocolombiana en Acandí, Chocó (2022-2024)(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Guerra Muriel, David Alejandro; Pérez Moreno, Hugo Ferney; Amaya Osorio, LucidiaPublicación Evaluación de resultados del programa “Línea 123 Mujer Antioquia” de la Gobernación de Antioquia (2020-2023)(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Torres Cardona , Yenny Marcela; Amaya Villegas, Yeni Alexandra; Tobón Zapata, SantiagoPublicación Plantas temporales como alternativa a los contratos por prestación de servicios : el estudio de caso de los agentes de tránsito vinculados en Medellín en el año 2021(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) González Montoya, Ingrid Vanessa; Franco Vargas, María EugeniaPublicación El reto de la gobernabilidad de los corregimientos de Medellín en la implementación de políticas, programas y proyectos para resolver los problemas públicos durante el periodo 2012 a 2023(Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Arango Hernández, John Fredy; Ramos Villa, María EugeniaThe township of San Antonio de Prado in the city of Medellín has experienced significant demographic growth in recent years, generated by urban pressure that has transformed rural life into the dynamics of urban life. The growing population has been demanding, in different scenarios, greater capacity of the central government to solve public problems. In this sense, this research aims to examine whether or not the current institutional design through which the district administration governs the Corregimientos facilitates the implementation of programs and projects to solve public problems, specifically in the Corregimiento of San Antonio de Prado.
