On April 2016, the Colombian National Police created the Police Unit for Peacebuilding – UNIPEP –to contribute to the post-conflict scenario in the country. From that moment on, a collaborative work began between UNIPEP, Interpeace's Regional Office for Latin America and partner organization Alianza para la Paz, with the support of the governments of Switzerland and the Netherlands. This alliance gave rise to the Peacebuilding Model of the National Police, launched on May 3, 2017.
