The Context
Despite the country's strong economic growth, poverty levels remain high in Panama. Among the indigenous population, poverty rates are even higher. Across the country, more than 80.5 percent of Panama's indigenous peoples live below the poverty line, and about 51.9 percent are extremely poor. Panama is a source, transit, and destination country for women and children subjected to trafficking in persons, specifically forced prostitution. Overall, Panama has higher drug use statistics than most other Central American countries. And not just cocaine, but also cannabis and synthetics.
