One of the surprises of this 2020 has been the COVID-19 pandemic; since the first cases
registered in China were released, the world has been on alert to mitigate and counteract
the spread of the virus.
Until March 15, Colombia applied the respective health emergency protocols to contain
and prevent the entry of people infected with corona virus at each of the country's
international airports in order to reduce the impact that Covid-19 would contract, however
before and after this date, several sectors of the economy have been affected, one of the
sectors that has suffered fractures in its economic structure due to the decisions made in
the emergency has been the tourism sector. (Colombia, 2020)
“According to the ECLAC report, "in 2020 there would be a reduction of between 20 and 30
percent in the number of tourist arrivals in the world, a much greater drop than that observed
in 2009 (4 percent) (UNWTO, 2020)” (SEMANA, 2020).
According to the projections of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), Colombia is
expected to contract -7.8%, in 2020, which would constitute the first recession in Colombia
since 1999, when the economy contracted -4.2 %.
