Impact Of The Comprehensive Plan For Coexistence And Citizen Security Of Fusagasugá Valid From 2020 To 2023

Abstract

This analysis investigates how the Comprehensive Plan for Security and Citizen Coexistence (PISCC) has influenced Fusagasugá, Cundinamarca, between 2020 and 2023. Fusagasugá, which is known as the capital of the Province of Sumapaz, faces constant challenges related to public security, as a result of common and organized crimes, violence between young people, gangs and other elements that impact social coexistence. The research examines the effectiveness of the strategies carried out by local authorities and the National Police, as well as residents' perceptions of safety, their involvement and cooperation between institutions.

A mixed method was used that combines quantitative information (through surveys and crime statistics) and qualitative information (including interviews and participatory observation), allowing for a complete evaluation of the plan. The findings reveal limited progress in crime prevention and control, although difficulties are still faced in reducing problems such as theft and domestic violence. Additionally, it was identified that the community has a low level of knowledge and appropriation of the PISCC, which limits its effectiveness and acceptance.

The analysis suggests measures to enhance citizen participation, improve security facilities, and include differentiated approaches, such as mental health care. These results contribute to the development of more effective and lasting public policies, focused on improving the quality of life and collective security in the region.
