Answers:

Introduction (Paragraph 1)
I imagine Colombia will likely 60 million people, and the provinces will be used to
expand the cities. The land will be more expensive and People will eat less meat
and more vegetables. PwC economic researchers point out that Colombia has a
very good chance to improve their figuration in the global context, if they develop
innovative sectors of information technology, which would improve its position in
the world.

Technology (Paragraph 2)
In technological development, I think it will increase the budget for science and
technology, and advances in internet coverage, but there will be a precarious
patent development and the need to improve telecommunications technologies.
With online government programs, Strengthening of IT Industry and Digital
Experience, through the Ministry of Information Technologies. The Colombian
government will work on the mass use networks and the use thereof.

Transportation (Paragraph 3)
In this sector, I think that the rivers will be an effective option to improve the flow of
goods between municipalities and regions. The free trade agreement will develop

the national roads. It will resume rail service for passengers and trade. There will
be more private cars and subway service in Bogota and other capitals.

Health (Paragraph 4)
I believe that the public health systems will be better than today and life
expectancy will be higher. Children will have more choices for sports and food will
be much more natural. People will have more awareness of preventive medicine,
although private health programs will remain very expensive and this will limit
coverage to millions of citizens.

Conclusion (Paragraph 5)
In 2050, new realities will occupy the tables of national issues. Colombia will be a
country at peace, and at the forefront of the development of the region fulfill our
leadership in science and technology, art and education, based in a new culture of
life, granting prevalence to human development on locomotives rabid
consumerism.
