Construcción de Gobernabilidad y Gobernanza en Chapinero: Rol de la Secretaría de Gobierno Durante las Manifestaciones 2020-2023

Abstract

Abstract: Between 2020-2023, Chapinero was the scene of various demonstrations that highlighted the concerns of citizens. These protests posed a significant challenge to stability and coexistence in the area and the intervention of the District Government Secretariat was crucial to balance the right to protest with the need to maintain public order. This work examines the role of the District Government Secretariat during the demonstrations in Chapinero, evaluating the actions implemented to peacefully manage the protests, thus verifying the governability and governance that was developed by the entity during this period. To achieve this goal, official documents, laws and interviews with officials of the entity were analyzed. Thus, it was determined that the Secretariat played a fundamental role in the application of governability and governance measures and in the promotion of a constructive dialogue between protesters and authorities. This study reveals that the management of the demonstrations by the District Government Secretariat in Chapinero was effective in terms of governability and governance. However, several challenges were faced that offered valuable lessons for future interventions in similar situations.
