The various adverse economic and social scenarios present in the border municipalities of Cúcuta (Colombia) and Bolivar (Venezuela) are a reflection of erroneous and contrary to the interests of the inhabitants of the region policies. Development opportunities present, require that plans and programs implemented for these spaces, are based on the design of more inclusive policies and social cohesion under a binational perspective that allows the solution of problems without impacting citizens.
