description In 1992 Colombia adopted the strategy of healthy municipalities, renamed in 1997 as healthy municipalities for peace. This strategy was promoted from different sectors and directed to social mobilization aimed at locally achieving equity, quality of life, and social development, thus allowing the creation of favorable-for-peace environments. Some municipalities have applied this strategy and both its processes as well as its results must be studied in order to learn from this experience. One of these municipalities was La Vega in the department of Cundinamarca. A case study of this municipality was carried out in order to evaluate some of the components of this strategy such as political involvement, healthy public policies, articulation between sectors and the organizational structure supporting this strategy. In this municipality the process began in 1990 as a primary health care strategy. In 1992 the mayor declared his commitment to this strategy and a plan of participative development, aimed at improving the quality of life of its population, was implemented. In this same year the Colombian Ministry of Health and the Pan American Health Organization recognized it as a healthy municipality and in 1997 it obtained the national healthy municipality prize. The relevant aspect of La Vega has been the process of community participation, basis of the work aimed at improving peoples´ health.

Se interpretó como una estrategia dirigida a la movilización social, impulsada desde diversos sectores para lograr la equidad, calidad de vida y desarrollo social en lo local, permitiendo la creación de ambientes propicios para la paz. Algunos municipios han aplicado esta estrategia y tanto sus procesos como resultados deben ser estudiados para aprender de su experiencia. Uno de estos municipios ha sido La Vega, ubicado en el Departamento de Cundinamarca, Colombia. Se llevó a cabo un estudio de caso de este municipio para evaluar algunos de los componentes de esta estrategia como el compromiso político, las políticas públicas saludables, la articulación intersectorial y la estructura organizativa que le sirve de soporte. El proceso en este municipio se inició en 1990, como una estrategia de atención primaria. En 1992 el alcalde municipal declaró su compromiso con la estrategia y se puso en práctica un plan de desarrollo participativo dirigido a mejorar la calidad de vida de su población. En ese mismo año el Ministerio de Salud y la Organización Panamericana de la Salud lo reconocieron como Municipio Saludable y en 1997 obtuvo el premio nacional de municipio saludable. Lo relevante de La Vega ha sido el proceso de participación comunitaria, eje del trabajo por mejorar la salud de la población.application/pdfspaRevista de Salud Públicahttp://revistas.unal.edu.co/index.php/revsaludpublica/article/view/18496Universidad Nacional de Colombia Revistas electrónicas UN Revista de Salud PúblicaRevista de Salud PúblicaJournal of Public Health; Vol. 4, núm. 2 (2002); 158-169 Revista de Salud Pública; Vol. 4, núm. 2 (2002); 158-169 0124-0064Vargas Cruz, Sandra L. and Castro, Martha L.
