Flooding in Arauca 2026: territorial analysis identifies more than 40,000 people at risk across the department during May and June

A study led by Fundación Corocoras, with technical support from 3iS and within the framework of the EVIDEM consortium funded by the European Union, makes it possible to anticipate the impact of rainfall across Arauca’s seven municipalities before it occurs. April is the month with the lowest level of impact during the quarter, with 1,282 people located in risk zones across the department. Soil and water bodies have not yet reached saturation levels. The difference between a disaster and a managed emergency is time. This analysis exists to give us that time.
