We, the women affected by Hidroituango, and who come from the West, North, and Lower Cauca as well as Antioquia have decided to come together as the Asociation of Women Defending the Water and Life (AMARU). From this position we have studied and denounced the ways in which the megaproyect has impacted on our lives in particular. Not only does it destroy human and non-human life, but it is also machista, it discriminates against us and it imposes its patriarchal rationality, leaving the women who are victims of the armed conflict without means of subsistence. Against this, our organization works to weave hope and to renew meaning for our lives.
