SPECIAL DISTRICTS — COLOMBIA (CHAMBER OF REPRESENTATIVES)
13+
=========================================================
14+
15+
This repository maintains mappings for OCD-IDs. In Colombia, the Chamber of Representatives includes several special districts ("circunscripciones especiales") in addition to the regular territorial contests. Below is how we model these districts and where they belong in the contest hierarchy.
16+
17+
WHAT COUNTS AS A "SPECIAL DISTRICT"
18+
-----------------------------------
19+
- Peace Districts: Seats created for regions affected by the armed conflict.
20+
Modeling rule: Each peace seat is its own special-scope contest within the Chamber of Representatives.
21+
Examples used in this project: Sur de Tolima, Urabá Antioquia.
22+
23+
- Raizal Community: Distinct community-based district for the Archipelago of San Andrés, Providencia and Santa Catalina.
24+
Modeling rule: Separate special-scope contest (not merged with Indigenous).
25+
26+
- Indigenous Communities: Community-based district.
27+
Modeling rule: Its own special-scope contest, separate from Raizal.
28+
29+
- Foreign ("Colombian citizens resident abroad"): International district for Colombians residing outside the country.
30+
Modeling rule: Special-scope contest under the Chamber of Representatives.
31+
32+
