dc.descriptionColumbia, after Syria, is the country with the second largest number of displaced persons in the world as a result of internal armed conflict, with a total of six million people (Bilak, et al., 2015) who have had their rights, including their right to work and live with dignity, violated. The main objective of this present paper is to study the condition of the population which lives in the urban area of Altos de la Sabana in the municipality of Sincelejo, focusing on social-labor inclusion and sustainable social entrepreneurship. This urbanization makes up part of the program of a million free houses that the national government has provided for the purpose of benefiting victims of forced displacement and people who are in extreme poverty (DNP, 2014). In order to accomplish said objective, a descriptive study was made using a quality-quantitative methodology whose basic source of information was primary, based on a questionnaire directed at 54 community leaders and on a semi-structured interview of a group of entrepreneurs who developed businesses in the community. As general results, those employed work informally. Only 22.2% of the activities in the studied cases are undertaken in what can be considered as small productive ventures.
