Abstract

The Second World War was a global military conflict that began in 1939 and ended in 1945 altering the political relations and social structure of the world. In this same year the Charter of the United Nations is signed and this is how the International Cooperation is officially created, where the first projects go back in 1947 with the assistance plans and actions for the countries that had been devastated by the war Military, known as "Marshall Plan". (Cultural History, 2010) In Colombia, the Special Division of International Technical Cooperation is created in the National Planning Department (DNP) and is in charge of the coordination of Cooperation at the national level jointly with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. For the year 2011 President Juan Manuel Santos created the Presidential Agency for International Cooperation of Colombia, APC-Colombia, as an entity attached to the Administrative Department of the Presidency of the Republic. APC- Colombia is the organization that guides the international cooperation of Colombia and has the proposal as a value proposition to increase the benefit that Colombian and international society obtains from the cooperation in function of the development according to the priorities of the country. (Departamento Nacional de Planeación (DNP), 2014) APC-Colombia focuses and streamlines the international cooperation that Colombia receives, prioritizing the territories that need it the most and 3 thematic areas: peace building, sustainable rural development and conservation and environmental sustainability. Thus, in the Department of Meta, the Technical Office of International Cooperation was created in order to bridge the gap between the agencies present in the territory, the secretariats of the Gobernación Del Meta and the 29 municipalities of the Department.
