On 24 November 2016, the government of Colombia signed a peace accord with the guerrilla group the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), opening a new chapter after nearly 60 years of civil conflict.<\/p>\n

The Colombian government has hailed the post-peace deal era as one of multiple opportunities for foreign traders and investors to stimulate economic activity in war-ravaged and previously inaccessible parts of the country.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere in Latin America, China has emerged as a major new trade partner, source of loans and contractor for infrastructure projects. The region\u2019s resources \u2013 soya, copper, iron ore and oil \u2013 helped to fuel China\u2019s rapid growth and to meet its food and energy security needs.<\/p>\n

But the social and environmental risks endemic to resource extraction and, more recently, infrastructure building, have generated strong opposition from affected communities when projects have not been responsibly managed.<\/p>\n

On the eve of the first anniversary of the signing of the historic peace deal, violence still ravages many parts of rural Colombia. The end of the western hemisphere\u2019s longest-running war has opened the door to new conflicts over land ownership and natural resources.<\/p>\n

On the eve of the first anniversary of signing of the peace deal with FARC, Di\u00e1logo Chino presents a\u00a0special series\u00a0<\/a>of articles exploring China\u2019s challenges in the promotion of peaceful and sustainable development in Colombia.<\/p>\n

From biodiversity preservation on the Caribbean coast to community opposition to oil exploration in the Amazon, the articles in this series offer a timely snapshot of the critical China-Colombia relationship.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
