DESCRIPTION:\nAdriana Castaño Roman was born in 1977 in the city of Medellín, 
 Colombia. Since graduating as a lawyer from the Law and Political Science 
 department at the University of Antioquia, she has worked as a human rights 
 defender with an integrated vision of the rights of young people, social, 
 economic and cultural rights and the right to dignified housing for 
 communities and displaced people. Adriana has been an activist with the 
 Medellín Youth Network since 1996, when she first joined as a participant 
 and coordinator of a youth group in one of Medellín’s neighborhoods. 
 Since 1998, she has had many different roles in the organization: she 
 coordinated a program focused on human rights, conscientious objection and 
 active nonviolence, and has worked to accompany young conscientious 
 objectors both legally and politically. Currently she gives legal advice to 
 conscientious objectors, as well as denounces forced recruitment and 
 participates in a new strategy of the Medellín Youth Network which works 
 to expose the concentration of wealth in the hands of so few, and organizes 
 political and legal action to enforce people’s rights to water, public 
 services and housing. Adriana has also been a spokesperson in national and 
 international events on peace and human rights and after her visit to the 
 US in February, will be on her way to India, where she will represent the 
 Medellín Youth Network at the War Resister’s League international 
 conference.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2010/02/12/18637688.php
