Description: The Geography program trains its students conceptually and technically to understand the spatial and territorial dynamics as a result of the relationships that are constituted between humans and the rest of nature with the mediation of culture, economic and social structure, politics and demographic dynamics at the international, national, regional and local scales. To this end, it recognizes the intensification of the processes of economic, technological, cultural and political globalization, as well as the growing environmental crisis, have strengthened the need for geographical analysis of the problems and challenges of the relationships between humans and between humans and the rest of nature, as a means to understand and find alternatives to the crucial problems of societies in their territories.
The teachers of the geography program are part of the different areas of the Center for Research on Social Dynamics (CIDS). Here they develop training activities for undergraduate and graduate research, with the purpose of understanding the country's problems and collaborating in their solution. This project links both the geography program and the Area of Conflict and Social Dynamics to identify the transformations of mountain productive structures associated with the food supply of Colombian Andean cities.
