  • Concordia Americas Summit in Bogotá
    CONCORDIA AMERICAS SUMMIT IN BOGOTÁ February 21, 2017 Metropolitan Club Bogotá, Colombia As an institution, Concordia is highly invested in the security and prosperity of the Americas and has prioritized collaboration across the Western Hemisphere as focal point of its agenda in 2017 and beyond. In partnership with Instituto de Ciencia Política Hernán Echavarría Olózaga, Concordia plans to hold a high-level convening of regional leadership in Bogotá, Colombia to address the most pressing challenges of the region. The Americas Summit in Bogotá will seek to discuss the future of Colombia as a nation, while also contextualizing this future beyond the region and more prominently within the global community. To accomplish this, the conversation will focus on three major issue areas including: regional corruption, the implementation of the recently approved peace deal, and a roadmap to achieving the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals. As evidenced in its mission, Concordia believes public-private partnerships are a key tool in addressing these issues, ensuring progress, and creating a more prosperous and sustainable future across the Americas. Co-Chairs of the Concordia Americas Summit in Bogotá Ambassador Juan Carlos Pinzón, Ambassador of Colombia to the United States of America Alfonso Gómez Palacio, President, Telefónica Colombia CONCORDIA AMERICAS SUMMIT IN BOGOTÁ SUMMIT FORMAT Concordia envisions this one-day Summit to take the format of a strategic dialogue. Concordia strategic dialogues feature 40-50 select individuals, including current and former heads of state, CEOs of leading corporations, and heads of multilateral organizations, who discuss particularly pressing global problems in-depth. These curated, interactive discussions, where everyone around the table is encouraged to participate, serve as high-level working groups.

  • Comunicado a La Opinión Pública in Memoriam La Asociación Colombiana De Oficiales En Retiro De Las Fuerzas Militares, Acore
    Comunicado a la opinión pública In memoriam La Asociación Colombiana de Oficiales en Retiro de las Fuerzas Militares, Acore, lamenta profundamente el repentino fallecimiento del ministro de Defensa Nacional, Carlos Holmes Trujillo, y expresa el más sentido saludo de condolencia a su esposa, sus hijos y demás integrantes de esta tradicional familia vallecaucana, saludo que hace extensivo al Gobierno Nacional en cabeza del presidente de la República, Iván Duque Márquez. Con la muerte de su ministro de Defensa, Colombia pierde a uno de sus hijos más egregios y a un verdadero patriota que consagró más de 44 años de su vida al servicio público, ocupando en este tiempo connotados cargos y designaciones, tanto en el país como en el exterior, toda vez que este líder político fue alcalde, embajador, ministro, constituyente y precandidato. Abogado de la Universidad del Cauca, inició su vida pública desempeñando su primer cargo como cónsul y encargado de negocios en la embajada de Colombia en Tokio, durante los gobiernos de Alfonso López Michelsen y de Julio César Turbay, entre 1976 y 1982. A su regreso al país fungió como secretario de Hacienda de Cali, en 1983, para luego ser el primer alcalde popular de la capital del Valle del Cauca, entre 1998 y 1990. De ahí, el ministro Trujillo saltó a la política nacional como cabeza de una de las listas del partido Liberal para la Asamblea Nacional Constituyente en 1991, destacándose en la redacción de nuestra actual Carta Magna. Su labor como Constituyente le valió para ser ministro de Educación del presidente César Gaviria, entre 1992 y 1994.
