The methodology is based on an exploration of the main indicators on education, taken from the Open Data Portal of the Colombian government, together with a normative analysis that allows to identify the evolution of the public policy on displacement, it was found that the primary level accesses the 8 %, at the secondary level 5% and at the level of higher education, no more than 2% of people are admitted in conditions of forced internal displacement.
