Spanish lawyer Enrique Santiago, Colombian human rights defender Diego Martínez and Colombian politician Álvaro Leya, amongst others, served as close advisors to the FARC delegation throughout the negotiations. Jonathan Powell, William Ury, Shlomo Ben Ami, and Joaquín Villalobos advised the Colombian government. The curious aspect of the latter team –with experience in peace negotiations ranging from a guerilla fighter in El Salvador to top civil servant in the Northern Ireland Peace talks to Israeli foreign minister– is that they were not so much experts in any technical sense but closer to being actual negotiation peers to the government’s team and the President. They had literally walked in their shoes or those of their opponents. This helped build trust and open space to discuss unconventional ideas." https://www.negotiationandpublicservice.co/post/the-street-cred-of-peer-advisors
