Macroproject and poverty between reality and illusion

By Rene Julio Castillo

Neighbourhood poverty is one of the main problems facing humanity today. In the case of Colombia, poverty has increased consistently over the last four decades, and currently more than half of the population is located below the poverty line. Solving this problem in Colombia is imperative for the government and the nation for economic, social, cultural, ethical and patrimonial reasons. Within the different POTs of the capital cities, programmes have been designed to save and progressively reduce urban informality. With the objective of alleviating neighbourhood poverty, there are other programmes of the national office of Social Action of the Presidency of the Republic in conjunction with other government bodies and NGOs to promote citizen Development and Productivity, which is strongly promoted by the government's political project of democratic security, legitimised in the book Vision Colombia second centenary: 2019. The objectives of this research are, consequently, to analyse the theoretical assumptions of these neighbourhood and citizen poverty alleviation programmes.
