Even though there has been a long tradition of emigration from Colombia, only in the last ten years has there been a significant increase as a result of events and circumstances that have tranformed the lives of Colombian citizens. This article focuses on studying the trends of the third Colombian diaspora wave between 2005 and 2015, reviewing the growth and decreases of the traditional destinations, as well as detecting the emergence of new destinations, in terms of the nature of migration to those destinations, and estimates of the actual number of Colombians in the recipient countries throughout this period.

Keywords : Migration; Colombia; third wave; trends; destinations.
