Authorities in Colombia have initiated various efforts to manage public spaces and enhance urban security. In Yopal, Casanare, local institutions, including the National Police and Migration Colombia, held working meetings to coordinate strategies for controlling public areas and promoting coexistence. 

In Bogotá and Pereira, operations focused on the physical recovery of urban environments. In Bogotá, the “Operación Espacio Público” resulted in the dismantling of makeshift structures and the seizure of weapons in the Las Américas sector. In Pereira, authorities intervened in a building declared uninhabitable due to collapse risks, removing debris and addressing sanitation concerns to improve safety.
