Colombia
From 1994 until 1997 I was working after a 3 month course in the DSE Bad Honnef
in Cali, Colombian, en the Corporación Regional Autónoma del Valle del Cauca -
CVC.
The CVC was privatizing 1995 the energy sector, which was forming a own
enterprise - EPSA. Until this moment the CVC was one of the biggest energy
enterprises of Colombia. I was working until the separation in the energy
sector, so I know the employees form EPSA very well.
On order of CIM I was staying in the CVC - environment part, which was
incorporated as regional dependency into the new founded Ministry of Environment.
The decision to stay in this part of the CVC was taken why the German Government
could not subsidy a future private enterprise.
More contacts I have had with private sector enterprises, mostly in the IT- and
Capacity Building area. Also there ware a strong contact to GTZ projects in
Cali, like SENA, etc.
The contacts to the CVC are still active.
