¿Qué pasó en Tribeca? Más de 500 familias deben evacuar tras 40 días del terremoto en Cali

More than four weeks after the earthquake in Cali, the community of the Tribeca residential complex faces a new evacuation following technical assessments that identified structural risks. Residents are questioning the delay in issuing this order, especially since they were initially assured that the building was safe to inhabit. This contradiction, combined with the arrival of new recent residents, has generated frustration and highlights the constant uncertainty experienced by those affected as authorities determine the true safety of their homes. Those affected urgently demand to be included in the census of disaster victims in order to access rental subsidies and financial relief, such as the suspension of bank payments and rental penalties. Since the city lacks immediate alternative housing options and evaluations may take months to complete, the lack of economic support exacerbates their vulnerability. Their complaint is not only about displacement but also about the accumulated financial burden while they are evicted and without certainty about their return. This case is relevant to the open data field because it underscores the need for transparency and access to accurate data on infrastructure affected by disasters. The discrepancy between initial and final classifications, as well as the difficulty in accessing clear and centralized information about the status of buildings, demonstrates the urgency of publishing risk management data openly. Only through public access to this critical information can communities demand accountability, plan effectively, and advocate for evidence-based public policies grounded in verifiable technical data.
