He Solidarity income benefited the most vulnerable families in Colombia, with a bimonthly subsidy offered by the Department of Social Prosperity (DPS). The director of the entity, Cielo Rusinque, announced that the Solidarity Income program has come to an end, therefore, it will not continue this 2023: “The subsidy had been given within the framework of the pandemic to mitigate its effects, that there were limited resources that we did not have and that the previous government had left it available until December 31, that is the only transfer that ends”.
However, other social programs such as Families in Action or Youth in Action They will continue as normal. For now, from Social Prosperity they hope to reorganize the programs that will remain in force, establish a budget and forms of access by people who need it.

This selection was made by the National Planning Department (DNP).
