Plan Colombia - Funding
U.S. funding for Plan Colombia totals approximately $4.5 billion in the FY2000-FY2005 time frame. Most of the funding has been provided through the Andean Counterdrug Initiative (ACI), a State Department program. The State Department also supports Colombia's aerial eradication programs through its Air Wing account. The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) provides support for alternative crop development and economic development programs, with some of its funding coming from the ACI account. The Defense Department, in a less structured format, has provided Colombia (through its counternarcotic allocations) with additional funding for training and equipment, in addition to the deployment of personnel in support of Plan Colombia.
