Earthquake recovery in Manizales and Dosquebradas

Overview

Following an earthquake on August 10, authorities in Manizales and Dosquebradas began resuming normal operations. In Manizales, the local government lifted a preventive curfew, allowing citizens to move freely between 12:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m. while damage assessments continued. In Dosquebradas, municipal services and transit offices reopened after ten days of disruption.

As the region transitions from immediate emergency response—including rescues and controlled demolitions—to long-term recovery, the municipality of Dosquebradas has requested an urgent reconstruction roadmap from the Risaralda department. The local government has identified needs for specialized technical assistance, housing, economic support for businesses, and technological solutions for approximately 3,000 affected students.
