In this week’s Inside Latin America is a Reporter’s Notebook from Lucia Newman on the ground in Colombia, following the aftermath of the quake and the efforts to reach survivors, deliver aid and clear rubble. In affected areas, families are still searching for relatives, neighbours are helping each other, and emergency teams are working against time as the scale of the disaster becomes clearer. The timing is politically significant. The earthquake came just days into President Abelardo de la Espriella’s presidency, making it his first major national emergency and an early test of his government, coordination, response and public confidence. This is a first-hand account of what the disaster looks and feels like on the ground — the rescue effort, the human toll, and the communities trying to rebuild after one of Colombia’s most serious emergencies in decades.
