About our Colombia news

Latest news on Colombia, providing comprehensive coverage of South America's fourth-largest country, including politics, economy, peace process, tourism, culture and developments in Bogotá, Medellín and beyond.

Colombia, a nation of 52 million people strategically located at the northern tip of South America, stands as one of the region's most dynamic economies and culturally diverse countries. With major cities including Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, and Cartagena, Colombia has emerged as a significant player in global trade, tourism, and international relations.

The country continues to navigate complex challenges, including ongoing peace implementation following the historic 2016 agreement with the FARC rebels. Recent developments focus on President Gustavo Petro's ambitious agenda for social reforms, environmental protection, and 'Total Peace' negotiations with remaining armed groups. The economy shows resilience despite global headwinds, with the government implementing policies to reduce inequality and promote sustainable development.

Colombia's vibrant culture captivates global attention through its diverse traditions, music, and arts. The country's transformation is particularly evident in cities like Medellín, once notorious for violence but now celebrated for innovation and urban planning. Local festivals such as Carnaval de Barranquilla and the Flower Festival in Medellín showcase Colombia's rich cultural heritage, while the country's growing tourism sector highlights its remarkable biodiversity and warm hospitality.

This nation's journey from challenging times to its current position as a regional leader spans centuries of rich history. From its pre-Columbian indigenous cultures through Spanish colonisation, independence in 1810, and subsequent development, Colombia's past continues to shape its present. The country's strategic location, connecting the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, has historically made it a crucial crossroads for trade and cultural exchange.
