I came across this image during a ceremony of the Peace
Process between the Colombian Government and the
AUC (biggest union of paramilitary
groups in Colombia).
The image is a green ribbon in the middle (meaning peace) on a
white background. This image was seen during a demobilization of
AUC troops, specifically in one of the ceremonies of the many
subfactions that are part of the
ACBCB
- Autodefensas Campesinas - Bloque Central Bolívar.

There are current conversations between the Colombian
government and the
ELN guerrilla in
order to try to get to a negotiation point that will lead to a
peace deal. During these talks, the Eln has been granted a safe
house (authorized by the Government) to hear different opinions
from different sectors and have a more constructive dialogue
towards the negotiations. This place is called Casa de Paz (Peace
House).
During these talks I have seen a flag displayed.

Both were founded in 1848, the Partido Liberal Colombiano -
Liberal Party's traditional color is red, and the Partido
Conservador Colombiano - Conservative Party's traditional color
is blue. They've shared power for most of the XIX and XX
centuries, a famous joke says that the true meaning of the
Colombian flag is: Yellow for our riches, blue and red for those
that distribute them among themselves. The "L" and
"C" were adopted as "official logos" and
featured in the flags.

The official website of the PLC (Partido Liberal Colombiano,
Colombian Liberal Party) is
www.partidoliberal.org.co.
The explanation of the symbols (taken form the official website):
"The red color, as interpretation of love, fraternity and
tolerance, is the standard of the Colombian Liberal Party and it
will go together with the current symbol and also with the
International Socialist, to which is affiliated".

The Liberal party of Colombia seems to use a plain red flag,
which appears in their site header. Though partially furled, it
does not seem to contain a white capital "L".
No mention is made of a party flag on its
"Symbols"
page. The "L" is only listed as the party logo.

The Partido Liberal was formally established on July 16, 1847, although it
traces its origins to the government era of Francisco de Paula Santander
(1832-1837) who were his main allies to introduce reforms.

of the "L" over the plain red flag was done by Graphic Designer David Consuegra
Uribe in 1986

The official website of the Partido Conservador Colombiano
(Colombian Conservative Party) is
www.partidoconservador.com.
E.R., 30 May 2005
The Conservative party of Colombia has no clear photo or
description of their flag on their website, but a statute in the
party constitution mentions it:
"ARTÍCULO 5.- El color del Partido Conservador es el azul.
El emblema, símbolos, himno y bandera adoptados como distintivos
del Partido están debidamente registrados en el Consejo Nacional
Electoral".
There is also a tiny photo of it flying in front of the party HQ
at
partidoconservador.org.
The shade of blue seems to be the same as that of the national
flag right next to it.
Eugene Ipavec, 7 September 2006
The Partido Conservador was formally established on October 4, 1849, although
it traces its origins to the government era of Francisco de Paula Santander
(1832-1837) who were his main opposition in order to maintain the status quo".

Although a new brand might suggest that there's a new flag, I have not seen
any pictures of a new flag with this new brand on it.
