 The Tourism Authority of Panama (ATP) presented the initiative "Panama Indígena"

A tourist circuit that is developed as part of the Heritage Routes proposed in the Master Plan for Sustainable Tourism (PMTS).

One of the main experiences seeks to show the worldview and traditions of 7 authentic indigenous peoples, where travelers can get in touch with their wisdom and their spiritual connection with the pristine nature that surrounds them.

This plan is aimed at the “conscious traveler”, a segment that represents a global and unstoppable trend of travelers who are concerned about the conservation of nature and authentic culture, as well as generating a positive impact on the communities they visit.

Recently at the Fitur 2021 International Fair, held from May 17 to 19 in Madrid, Spain, it was possible to verify a very relevant interest on the part of airlines, journalists and tourism companies, in learning about the cultural diversity of Panama, the worldview and the lifestyle of the different ethnic groups that inhabit the country.

The recent meeting with the traditional authorities took place this weekend in the community of Akua Yala, Comarca Guna de Madugandi. and it was classified as historical, because for the first time the ATP, as an institution, delivers a tourist proposal to the native peoples.

"This approach marks the beginning of the consultation process, to jointly analyze with the authorities and the technical team that they designate, based on Law 37 of August 2, 2016, the potential of the communities in indigenous territories, as well such as the needs for the development of rural community tourism in alliance with the APTSO Panama foundation ", highlights a press release.

The 7 indigenous peoples that inhabit the Isthmus are: Ngäbe, Buglé, Naso Tjërdi, Bri-Bri, Kuna or Guna, Emberá and Wounaan, representing more than 13% of the population, guarding 23% of the national territory.

These peoples are represented by 12 congresses and councils that are part of the National Coordinator of Indigenous Peoples (COONAPIP), an entity whose mission is to promote and strengthen the unity, cohesion and defense of the territories and natural resources of the indigenous peoples of Panama.

Panama is quickly becoming a popular destination for holding conventions and international events. A modern infrastructure, which is often cited as the best in the region, direct flights to more than 50 cities in the region and 13 in the U.S, world-class attractions nearby, meeting facilities, hotels, excellent restaurants, a globalized populace, and a vibrant metropolis with more than 100 banks and exciting nightlife, all make Panama the perfect place to host first-class events.

No matter what you’re looking for…in terms of climate, budget, convenience, or anything else… Panama is likely to check all the boxes.

Panama is located at the center of Latin America, at the very point where Central and South America meet. It is home to one of the world’s fastest growing economies, which is built largely on the country being a primary provider of financial, logistic and commercial services to all the nations of the region. Its central role in Latin America is vested in its being a business friendly nation, and that is complemented by its attractive and comfortable lifestyle.
