As a researcher, I am interested in two particular topics. The first is directly related with the question about how to deal with the past; specifically, I constantly ask myself about traditional criminal and penitentiary law institutions, in order to rethink them and remove their veil of neutrality. My second topic of investigation is related to the building of a future after the conflict and questions how integrity in legal institutions can be achieved. For both of these questions, I obtained a theoretical approach in the classes that I took at Giessen University.
In July and August 2017, through a collaboration project between Colombia and Germany, Instituto CAPAZ provided me the opportunity to attend the summer school at Justus Liebig University in Giessen (Germany). The project was aimed at directing efforts in the generation of training processes, academic updating, and exchanges between Colombian and German students and professionals, to whom the entire span of the experience became a scenario of continued learning.

One of the reasons for attending an international summer school is the possibility to discover different legal schools and traditions based on the experiences of classmates and professors. The learned perspectives on the political and peace processes, armed conflict, peace building and the implementation and guarantee of human rights all over the world were all very diverse.
