Panama Protests - Part 3- The Finale. Protests & roadblocks are over; the people won; what we learned during the protests

Today we have another longer episode (hopefully the last long one for a while)! the FINAL part 3 of the Panama protest series. The Panama protests and roadblocks are over! The Panamanian people got what they asked for and we can all travel freely and get everything we need now. We start out with a slight recap of why and when the protests started and how it lasted for 41 days (October 22, 2023-December 2, 2023). We share how it ended with the Supreme Court finding the mining contract unconstitutional and how the mine will cease operations. This is what the protestors wanted. We discuss our uncertainty of whether or not the roadblocks would actually open. They finally did and have been open since! We touch a bit on the fallout from these roadblocks on the economy, agriculture, tourism, and more. We then share what we learned during this challenging time. We learned a lot about the kindness and patience of the people here and found new strength within ourselves. We are still 100% happy that we moved our life here and are excited to be able to get back to work on all our projects now!NEW EPISODES EVERY FRIDAY!*Music used with permission from www.joystock.orgIf you enjoyed our show or found something helpful, we'd love for you to leave us a kind review!VISIT OUR FARM'S WEBSITEFOLLOW ALONG WITH US ON INSTAGRAMDONATE TO OUR PODCAST VIA PAYPAL
