The nine communities
Five river communities and four road communities make up the collective territory of the lower Calima basin. Each has its own history, its own people and its own way of living in the forest.

The nine communities are not separate municipalities: they are parts of a single collective territory, titled to the Community Council of the Black community of the lower Calima River basin by Resolution 002244 of 4 December 2002.
The General Assembly is the highest authority and the Governing Board carries out its decisions. In each community the village committees are the direct channel for participation, and from there needs and proposals are taken to the Assembly.
