A nation of 53.4 million on two oceans, more than half of it forest, whose essential health care scores 82 out of 100 and whose first metro line is rising over Bogota.
Perfect Nations values what Colombia owns and raises capital against it, through innovative financing for development (FfD) and super intelligence (SI).

53.4mCitizens, 2025
79 in every hundred live in towns and cities; the rest live on the land they farm and fish.
36.5%Of land in farms and pasture
The land that feeds the nation, and the first place a citizen dividend can be earned.
53.7%Of land under forest
Standing forest holds the water, soil and carbon that the world will pay to keep.
41,459 m³Renewable fresh water per person
Enough to supply every home, once it is stored, treated and piped.
76.2%Of energy from renewables, 2021
Sun, wind, water and biomass already carry part of the load; the rest is the opportunity.

IFC, 202403Solutions · The seven stars · Perfect Capita
Perfect Capita is the yearly cost, per person, of lifting everyone above the Living Line in all seven basic living standards, set with Colombia in its own prices.
How Perfect Capita worksTap a star for its figure and source.
The price of Perfect Colombia
To be set with Colombia, from its own figures and in its own prices: Perfect Capita times the people of Colombia, each year.
Perfect Nations estimate, to be confirmed with Colombia. Figures marked dated rest on surveys more than five years old; lenient measures are marked as such. The strict measures
Strict measures. Food: share not moderately or severely food insecure (FAO). Water: safely managed drinking water where measured; where it is not, basic water, marked as such. Shelter: the lower of safely managed sanitation and the share outside urban slums. Energy: the lower of electricity per person against 1,000 kWh and clean cooking. Education: the lower of children reading by the end of primary school and lower-secondary completion. Health: WHO service coverage index. Livelihood: share above the stricter of the national poverty line and the World Bank line for the nation’s income group. Each figure links to its source.
Solution No. 05
Cities issue bonds for toilets, sewers and safer homes, and new transit lines help finance them.
~43mColombians without a safely managed toilet at home
Yellow, blue and red: the riches of your land, the two oceans that bound it, and the courage that won it.
More than half your land is forest, and essential health care scores 82 out of 100, among the highest in the region.
“You arranged your disaster finance before the earthquake came. Now arrange a safe toilet for every Colombian home.”
