#REDIRECT [[Emigration from Colombia]]
'''Colombian diaspora''' refers to the mass movement of [[Colombian People|Colombian people]] who have emigrated, looking for a better quality of life or safety. Many of those who moved were educated middle and upper middle-class Colombians, but also significant numbers of low income poor. Colombian officials state that this movement peaked in the year 2000 and that the most popular destinations are the [[United States]], [[Ecuador]], [[Canada]], [[Brazil]], [[Costa Rica]] and [[Venezuela]], but [[Spain]] has the largest Colombian community in [[Europe]]. However, tens of thousands of Colombian immigrants live in [[Italy]], [[France]] and [[United Kingdom|Great Britain]], and throughout Latin America ([[Mexico]], [[Argentina]] and [[Chile]] received political refugees in the late 20th century, and Colombian guest workers in the early 2000's).

Another meaning refers to the new wave of Colombian artists who have migrated seeking better opportunities and new markets.
