Abstract	This article presents our narration of the emergence and development of a research area about the teaching and learning of the English language in Colombia and the creation of a research group named Critical Studies of Colombian Education Policies. The narration includes a description of the bilingual education policy in Colombia and a literature review of how the themes "Different Shades of the Colombian National Plan of Bilingualism" and "Theoretical and Practical Concerns over Bilingualism" have been addressed by authors of local journals, such as How, Profile, Íkala, and Colombian Applied Linguistics Journal, in the issues published from 2008 to 2020. The description and literature review link the life stories of our growth as teachers and researchers as related to the research area and research group mentioned above. A final part of the narration refers to our contributions to the ELT field in Colombia through the following two themes: "Dimensions of Language Policies: A Political Discourse Perspective" and "Making Teachers' Agency Relevant: Bottom-up Approaches to the Study of Language Education Policies."
