Abstract
The strong rain wave suffered by Colombia between 2010 and 2011 brought about some unprecedented floods in the village Campo de la Cruz, in the Atlántico Province. Based on an ethnographic work consisting in interviews, focus groups, and observations by the participants, the human displacement caused by the disaster is studied considering the notions of climate displacement, adaptation and care practices. In addition, the changes taking place in the customs and routines of the displaced community in response to the family fragmentation and the space and resource scarcity are analyzed. Likewise, is discussion is developed on the importance of the promotion and inclusion of this population in the ways the government is dealing with these phenomena.
