Digital Brigade
The Digital Brigade began to arise in 2010 and today is made up of citizens and entities from a variety of different backgrounds, who seek to take advantage of their digital skills to contribute to the social and humanitarian situation of the country. Although the organizations and individuals involved come from civil society, the Brigade is oriented by the Ministry of Information Technologies and Communications and therefore its actions are aimed at achieving the objectives of the technological Digital Live Plan of the Government of Colombia for the period 2010- 2018. The Digital Brigade is organized and articulated into thematic squadrons and territorial nodes. The squadrons are related to issues such as overcoming extreme poverty, health, inclusion of women, and the environment, among others. Each squadron has an internal organization and it is sought that all the territorial nodes have leaders of all the squadrons that are articulated in a great thematic network, which in turn is articulated to the Brigade.
