Resumen
El presente estudio de caso comprende el trabajo realizado por medio del Proyecto Desplazados
Ambientales: nuevos procesos de exclusión en Costa Rica, ejecutado por el Instituto de Estudios
Sociales en Población (IDESPO) de la Universidad Nacional. Describe el desplazamiento ambiental
experimentado por la Comunidad de Calle Lajas, debido a un deslizamiento ocurrido el 3 de
noviembre del 2010 que trajo como consecuencia pérdidas humanas y materiales, además la reubicación
de la comunidad en la actual Lajas Compartir. La situación vivida por la comunidad permite
realizar un censo a la población reubicada y entrevistas a actores involucrados; evidenciando con
ambas técnicas los retos y aprendizajes en la gestión del riesgo y la atención a las poblaciones que
viven el desplazamiento ambiental.
