In 1993, the Human Rights Office of the Vicariate of Pucallpa succeeded in forming a support network by appointing pastoral agents in the department of Ucayali. These agents had the mission of disseminating the support of the Catholic Church to the victims of political violence in the region. In addition, they were to inform the Office about movements or events linked to human rights violations. This network was established after several years in which the affected population had to travel from their villages to Pucallpa to report disappearances, abuses or murders perpetrated by armed groups or the armed forces.
