2005 Delegation

In 2005 the Community Action for Justice in the Americas and the Colombia Action Network organized a delegation of student and community activists from Montana and Minnesota that traveled to Colombia. The delegation met with human rights organizations, labor unions and campesino (peasant) groups to investigate the true effects of U.S. military aid to Colombia. They were hosted by the beverage workers union (SINALTRAINAL) and the Cimitarra River Valley Peasant Association. They went to Bogotá, Barrancabermeja and the Magdelena Medio region, and the department of Arauca.
