Colombian Demobilized Population Reintegration Status Statistics

Colombian national and regional statistics track the monthly status of demobilized individuals within the state reintegration process. The dataset categorizes individuals into groups such as 'in process', 'absent from process', 'out of process', and 'completed'. It is published by the Colombian government's National Reintegration Agency (ARN) via datos.gov.co, with data updated monthly.

Use Cases

• Analyze regional patterns in reintegration outcomes using 'Departamento de residencia' and 'Situación Final frente al proceso'.
• Track monthly changes in the population 'en proceso de reintegración' versus 'culminada' using 'FechaCorte' and status columns.
• Model factors influencing program entry by correlating 'Ingresó/No ingresó' with geographic features like 'Municipio de Residencia DANE'.
• Monitor administrative updates and data revisions by examining the 'FechaActualizacion' field against status changes.

Strengths

• Data is updated monthly, providing a regular time-series view.
• Includes detailed geographic breakdowns at department and municipality levels via DANE codes.
• Defines clear, discrete categories for the calculated 'situación frente al proceso' variable.

Limitations

• Unknown total row count prevents assessment of population coverage.
• Relies on a calculated status variable ('Situación Final frente al proceso') without raw source data for validation.
• Potential for geographic bias if reporting is inconsistent across all municipalities.
