In Colombia, the Ember\u00e1 community faces a deep and silent pain that particularly affects young women, who suffer from discrimination, poverty, and violence. This year, the suffering has been particularly severe, with women like Ahitana in Bogot\u00e1 showing scars from failed suicide attempts as they seek refuge in a life of overcrowding and neglect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Choc\u00f3, the situation is even more dire, with 22 suicides in 2023 and over 2,400 attempts between 2019 and 2023.
