The forums reviewed, then, had as a common denominator the addressing of multiple topics that are closely related to transversal aspects of criminal justice, specifically, the main problematic situations and the current challenges faced by the criminal prosecution system, both in the field of ordinary justice as well as from the perspective of the current situation of the country, with a view to advancing the peace process, between the National Government and the FARC-EP, which involves the adoption of a transitional justice model from the state of war to a stable peace situation. This is a subject that currently occupies and, without a doubt, will continue to capture the attention not only of academia, but also of judicial operators, lawyers and legal scholars in general, as these are phenomena that preserve its validity and merit the formulation of strategies to optimize the administration of criminal justice.
