Peque
It is located about 200 km from Medellín, in the foothills of the Western Cordillera, with varying altitudes depending on the area. With a dispersed rural population and a foundation registered in 1868, it is an agricultural and livestock municipality by tradition. Its attractions include rivers, mountains and natural routes that make it a destination of tranquility and rural landscape.
With a cumulative investment of more than $53 billion, Peque has made remarkable progress in social, environmental and community development. Environmental and social management, with more than $34.245 million—including $216 million executed in 2024—has promoted programs of ecological restoration, environmental compensation and community strengthening.
Added to this are more than $18 billion in additional social investment, resources that have energized productive projects, housing improvements and actions to restore decent living conditions. The 1% investment, with $1,268 million, and the PAE, with $195 million, have reinforced contingency care and institutional strengthening.
These investments are reflected in active productive projects, intervened housing, environmental restoration processes and community training, consolidating an integral development process that benefits rural and urban families.
