The construction of dams in Latin America has been
since the 60’s
a controversia and shocking topic. It is important to take into account the effects generated by these works
both for the ecosystem and the surrounding communities. In 2009
in the department of Santander
Colombia
the Sogamoso dam was built
significantly affecting the ecosystem as well as several populations of nearby towns. The present research was undertaken to define the social and economic changes derived for the construction of this public work
based on the perception of the local habitants living downstream of the dam. To do so
techniques such as semi-structured interviews and focal groups were applied
based on the qualitative method of social investigation and exposed to the ecological theory of ecosystems. The main changes found are mostly social
centered on unemployment
familiar disruption and the sequels on environment biodiversity. Finally
it is recommended to continue with the process of community’s intervention
reinforcing group cohesion and the awareness of rights and duties for the population in the area
thus achieving an integral contribution from the social work perspective and its incidence in communitarian processes.
