planes de vida: plans for life, vs life plans
I've seen this phrase, common in Colombian social justice movements, rendered as life plans, but I think that in English we're used to that meaning our individual life plans - ie, to buy a house, have a baby, etc. In the Colombian context these are community plans for protecting and sustaining life, as in, actually staying alive, and then about thriving.

Hi Sara,
Congrats on your great blogs! Nice to see another translator-interpreter who is also an activist for social change. I have been putting some resources for "agentes de cambio social" at my site (www.culturadepaz.peternewton.biz), which I invite you to look at.
Abrazos,
Peter.
