Maria Clara Posada stated that the JEP would have signed 22 agreements with the PNUD between 2018 and 2026 to outsource contracts worth $201.467 million. She wrote that the agency had diplomatic immunity and was not obliged to reveal who it hired, how much it paid, or what work was done, which she described as a scheme of secrecy. Posada claimed that the case would be more serious than that of the parallel Fund of MinIgualdad. The author pointed out alleged irregularities in the agreements. She said that they were governed by PNUD rules, something that, according to her, could only be done if the agency contributed more than 50% of the value, a condition that would have been met in five of the 22 agreements. She also stated that the PNUD did not provide money but made in-kind contributions, and that the available information in Secop did not allow for a detailed understanding of how the JEP calculated its value. Posada added that the law prohibited the use of international cooperation agreements to execute budget resources, in order to prevent evasion of contracting regulations. In this case, she argued, the PNUD would have managed the JEP's resources for tasks specific to the entity, such as ensuring legal advice to victims and strengthening the capacity of the Investigation Unit. #JEP #PNUD #contratación (translated)
