All activities that are carried out are negotiated, debated and agreed with the Base Organizations. Social actors’ perception of the territorial conflict, the possible solutions and the routes to be followed, are the fundamental input for the advancement of the land regularization process carried out by the current government. The PEU maintains (in addition to the meetings and workshops on the ground) a fluid telephone and virtual contact with the Organizations and their supporting institutions – namely: the Lhaka Honhat Indigenous Association, the Organization of Creole Families, the Real Frontera Board of Neighbours, the Pilcomayo Cooperative, the Indigenous Communities and Creole Families who are not represented by said institutions, Asociana, Fundapaz. // Except for the periods during which, for climate reasons (end of December until end of March) the technical team cannot go into the field, every 15 or 30 days Informative Meetings or Participatory Workshops are held in the area, coordinated by the PEU with representatives of the Indigenous Communities and the Creole Families, with the presence of second-degree organizations and supporting institutions.”
