RESUMEN: Este artículo muestra las prácticas creativas y políticas a las que han acudido las mujeres cantadoras de alabaos del corregimiento de Pogue, municipio de Bojayá, departamento del Chocó, para denunciar los daños causados por la guerra, sanar las heridas y tramitar las pérdidas de acuerdo a los repertorios espirituales afrochocoanos. Las Musas de Pogue proponen nuevos lenguajes políticos como escenarios de diálogo para la paz y expresan los temores e incertidumbres sobre el futuro de las comunidades afrodescendientes en Bojayá. Este artículo es resultado de un ejercicio participativo de investigación con enfoque etnográfico en el que se construyeron narrativas visuales y radiales con las voces de las alabaoras, sus hijas y parientes como protagonistas. ; ABSTRACT: This article shows the work of women who sing to dead, alabaoras, in Pogue, town of the municipality of Bojayá. According to the Afro spiritual repertoires, their creative and political practices denounce the damage caused by the war in order to heal their wounds and to process their losses. Las musas de Pogue propose new political languages as scenarios for the dialogue on peace in their territories. Through chants, they express the fears and uncertainties about the future of the Afro Colombian communities. This article is the result of a participatory research exercise with an ethnographic approach in which female singers, their daughters, and relatives constructed visual and radio narratives.

Based on ethnographic work with several women's textile making collectives in Colombia, this article approaches their crafting practices as everyday doings of socio-ecological reparation, in the midst of social and environmental devastation caused by the armed conflict. Rather than focusing on the relevance of their activities for political activism and historical memory, an ecological perspective allows us to emphasise their work as a mundane, more than social process of communal regeneration. We discuss how women in these collectives, after painful and violent displacements, craft new ecologies of existence: relations and interdependencies within more than human worlds that cultivate new modes of care and attention, values and sensibilities in precarious living spaces. Ecological reparation is an everyday, vital, ongoing practice essential for community resurgence and for re-establishing collectivities that sustain liveable worlds.

El Consejo Latinoamericano de Ciencias Sociales (CLACSO) ha organizado el Premio Guillermo Hoyos Vásquez "Proceso de paz y perspectivas democráticas en Colombia" dirigido a científicos/as sociales de América Latina y el Caribe, en señal de reconocimiento a quien durante su ciclo vital en el mundo intelectual, desde la perspectiva filosófica y ética, aportó de manera muy significativa al pensamiento crítico en nuestra región. Un homenaje a quien acompañó durante largos años la labor de CLACSO, animando grupos de trabajo, contribuyendo a la formación académica y orientando programas y proyectos de esta organización, que precisamente nació en Colombia hace casi medio siglo, país donde vio la luz el Maestro Guillermo Hoyos, en la región antioqueña. Quienes han recibido el premio, han sido fieles a ese legado, como lo evidencian los ensayos recogidos en este volumen, que han respondido con rigor y excelencia a la convocatoria a presentar ensayos sobre "Proceso de Paz y perspectivas de democratización en Colombia".

Abstract
Background
In conflict-afflicted areas, pregnant women and newborns often have higher rates of adverse health outcomes.

Objective
To describe maternal and child health indicators and interventions between 1998 and 2016 comparing high and low conflict areas in Colombia.

Methods
Mixed study of convergent triangulation. In the quantitative component, 16 indicators were calculated using official, secondary data sources. The victimization rate resulting from armed conflict was calculated by municipality and grouped into quintiles. In the qualitative component, a comparative case study was carried out in two municipalities of Antioquia: one with high rates of armed conflict and another with low rates. A total of 41 interviews and 8 focus groups were held with local and national government officials, health professionals, community informants, UN agencies and NGOs.

Results
All of the indicators show improvement, however, four show statistically significant differences between municipalities with high victimization rates versus low ones. The maternal mortality ratio was higher in the municipalities with greater victimization in the periods 1998–2004, 2005–2011 and 2012–2016. The percentage of cesarean births and women who received four or more antenatal visits was lower among women who experienced the highest levels of victimization for the period 1998–2000, while the fertility rate for women between 15 and 19 years was higher in these municipalities between 2012 and 2016. In the context of the armed conflict in Colombia, maternal and child health was affected by the limited availability of interventions given the lack of human resources in health, supplies, geographical access difficulties and insecurity. The national government was the one that mostly provided the programs, with difficulties in continuity and quality. UN Agencies and NGOs accessed more easily remote and intense armed conflict areas. Few specific health interventions were identified in the post-conflict context.

Conclusions
In Colombia, maternal and child health indicators have improved since the conflict, however a pattern of inequality is observed in the municipalities most affected by the armed conflict.
