18 2008 global economic crisis. Challenges for Colombia LatAm: Good economic performance. Middle-income country in Middle-tohigh-income country in Simultaneously providing and receiving. Regional participation in official development assistance (ODA) disbursements - Source: ECLAC, based on information from OCD

19 Challenges for Drugs Policy Separating drugs from foreign policy. Positive agenda. New priorities for relations. Dependence on official development assistance and neglect of other kinds of cooperation. Balance supply and demand in drugs policy. Colombia's expertise in several topics related to drug trafficking is not totally systematized or modeled for promoting south-south cooperation.

20 Opportunities for Colombia Peace negotiations. Gender, human rights, and environmental sustainability. Strengthen relations with the United States in new areas.

21 Opportunities Consolidate the portfolio of south-south cooperation offered. Diversify the sources from which cooperation is sought. Rigorously explore decentralized and private sources, south-south and triangular cooperation, and corporate social responsibility processes.

22 Opportunities Continue managing ODA through ECLAC's structural disparities approach (segmented vision of the territory). Segment the country by levels of development. This argument serves to justify the need for intervention in some areas of the country, which coincide with those that have drugrelated problems.
