Márquez, who is the first black woman to hold the position in Colombia, formally announced the pair’s trip on Aug. 1 and said that they “kindly accepted my invitation to visit our beautiful country.”
Harry, 39, and Meghan, 43, will then meet with various organizations and youth groups to continue their work through the Archewell Foundation, before attending an Insight Session at a local school.
The couple will also take part in a summit with experts, activists and community members who work to create more positive online environments — something Harry and Meghan have been passionate about.

Notably, Colombia became the first South American country to join Harry’s Invictus Games, which he launched in 2014 for both active and retired military service members from around the world who are wounded, injured or sick.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will also visit Cartagena and Cali during their trip.
The visit marks the couple’s first joint trip to Colombia, where the “Suits” alum could potentially showcase her Spanish-speaking skills.
The former actress, who wed Harry in 2018, learned Spanish while working an an intern at the US Embassy in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
And in 2020, Markle was sure to display her bilingual abilities at a charity event in Los Angeles.
The trip comes just days after the couple’s chief of staff, Josh Kettler, quit after just three months on the job.
