Atlántico seeks strategic trade and investment ties with the United States
The government of the Atlántico department in Colombia is seeking to strengthen strategic ties with the United States. Governor Eduardo Verano met with U.S. Consul General William Bistransky and embassy representatives in Bogotá to propose a partnership focused on investment, technology, and trade. The initiative aims to position the Caribbean region as a competitive hub for economic growth through active commercial exchange.
In Spain, sustainable tourism and agroecology initiatives are expanding through European cooperation. In La Palma, a recent event titled ‘Agroecology and sustainable tourism: Women who sow the future’ brought together farmers, researchers, and entrepreneurs. The discussions focused on using ecotourism and environmental education to diversify rural economies, create jobs, and support the leadership of women in the agricultural sector.
