Given the increase in rainfall, the Mayor’s Office of Cali convened a risk management council and activated all the capacities of the different district organizations and relief, through an Emergency and Contingency Plan to prevent risks due to rainfall in the capital of Valle del Cauca.

“We made this extraordinary advice because an unusual rainy season is coming. The La Niña Phenomenon is added to the daily season every year, between March, April and May, and we will have 30% more rainfall. In this sense, next Wednesday, at 8:00 in the morning, we will have a district risk management council with the intention of being able to carry out all the actions that prevent landslides, floods or situations that generate danger to life, dignity and heritage. That is the objective of this meeting,” said Mayor Jorge Iván Ospina Gómez.

In the department, according to the Department of Disaster Risk Management of the Government of Valle del Cauca, the effects of the rains are monitored in rural areas of Palmira, Caicedonia, El Cerrito, Buga, Ginebra and Dagua. In Buga there is a movement of earth and stones, which leaves several families affected.
