Renewable Internal Freshwater Resources: 2,145 billion cubic meters
The Colombian government has recognized the importance of water resources management and created multiple laws and institutions aimed to regulate the use of water. Despite the government efforts, there are still significant challenges including the drop in water quality. Colombia’s freshwater per capita figure in 1962 was 122,570 m³ while in 2014 it dropped to 44,883.
