The Catatumbo region is a region of Colombia. It is located in the northeast of the department of Norte de Santander and a small part in the southwest of the department of Cesar, which extends between the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia and Lake Maracaibo, which is why the region has come to be considered "transborder".[1] This region in Colombia is made up of 13 municipalities: Ábrego, Convención, El Carmen, El Tarra, González, Hacarí, La Playa de Belén, Ocaña, Río de Oro, San Calixto, Sardinata, Teorama and Tibu.[2][3] This region is part of the PDET development plan's target territories.
