Tabasara, an ancestral river destined for clean energy
The documentary brings together the experiences of the Ngäbe-Buglé indigenous communties that resist their own disappearance. Recently a clean energy project called the Barro Blanco Project has begun a change that implies a quotidian shift in these communities. From there arises the need to resist and struggle in order to save their land being that without the land the Ngäbe-Buglé are no longer who they are. The Ngäbe-Buglé region is found in the western region of Panama and consists of 6814,2 km2 and a population of 156,747 inhabitants following the 2010 census. The case of Río Tabasará is repeated in the rest of the central american countries. This material is an informational tool for other communities that struggle and resist megaprojects.
