FOR has been in the forefront of work to end US military aid in Colombia, the country with the greatest human rights and humanitarian crisis in the hemisphere, and also the largest recipient of US military training and equipment. FOR has also contributed to informing high-level and grassroots concerns in South America about new US military bases in Colombia.

This webinar will explore what our country is doing in Colombia, the historic and present effect of the US on the region and what we can do to address it.
