Colombia
The Challenge
In Colombia, USAID aims to reduce the production of illicit drugs and promote peace. Colombia faces an array of inter-connected and complex challenges to its prosperity and stability. These include decades of internal conflict and violence conducted by illegal armed groups and fueled by the production of illicit drugs; forced displacement of non-combatants; a lack of state presence throughout large sections of the countryside; significant income/opportunity disparities, particularly among Colombia's large Afro-Colombian population; weak democratic and civil society institutions and corruption. Even so, Colombia is one of the U.S. Government's strongest regional partners. Along with both local and national governments, USAID is improving democratic-based institutions and policies promoting adherence to human rights; providing legal and sustainable alternative development opportunities; promoting economic and trade policy reforms, and supplying humanitarian assistance to the displaced.
