The goal for the Panama Posse barrel is to identify ways in which we can help communities and entities living on the edge and define new standards of sustainability.
Our goal is to find the silver lining and long term solutions to communities living in coastal impact zones.

EXAMPLES OF NON SUSTAINABLE ACTIVITIES
Example: BEACH CLEANUP
While dirty beaches are sight for sore eyes and plastic which washes down rivers winds up on these beaches cleaning up these beaches is the responsibility of those who live there. Plastic consumption and dirty environments are caused by locals and ultimately it is not sustainable to clean up a beach for them
If you clean up the beach for the locals without their initiative what lesson does it send to the local communities ?
Solution ?
Example: FIXING, DONATING, REFUELING OR SERVICING OUTBOARDS
Fishing has been a local activity for thousands of years but new technologies ( such as outboards, FOBS Gill nets and deploying long lines ) are causing over fishing and in areas and decimate sustainable oceans. Is empowering local fishermen with solutions which create operational and maintenance and financial challenges a long-term solution ? If fishermen go out and over fish - prolong their stays and add additional risks just to cover fuel coast and expensive outboards is that viable for all ?
Solution ?
THE BARREL IS A SYMBOL TO BE PASSED FROM VESSEL TO VESSEL WITH A MESSAGE OF FINDING LONG TERM SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS
Our goal is to talk - and find out what coastal communities really want and need .
THE GUNA PEOPLE
The economy of Guna Yala is based on agriculture, fishing and the manufacture of clothing with a long tradition of international trade. Plantains, coconuts, and fish form the core of the Guna diet, supplemented with imported foods, a few domestic animals, and wild game. Coconuts, called ogob [IPA: okˑɔβ] in the Guna language, and lobsters skungit [skuŋkˑit] are the most important export products. Migrant labor and the sale of molas provide other sources of income.
The Guna have a long deep rooted history of mercantilism and a longstanding tradition of selling goods through family owned venues. Most imported goods originate from Colombian, Mexican or Chinese ships and are sold in small retail stores owned by Guna people. The Guna have not excised tax when trading goods and place strong emphasis on economic success. This tradition of trade and self-determination has been credited by many as a chief reason the Guna have been able to successfully function independently compared to other indigenous groups.
Guna communities in Panama City are typically made up of migrant laborers and small business owners, although many Guna also migrate to Panama City to sell fish and agricultural products produced by their respective communities. The sale of Mola and other forms of Guna art has become a large part of the Guna peoples economy in recent years and mola vendors can be found in most cities in Panama where they are marketed to both foreigners and Hispano Panamanians. Tourism is now an important part of the economy in the Carti region, and abandoned goods from the drug trade provide occasional windfalls.
