Conservation vs. Development: The Hidden Costs of the Port of Barú in Panama

The Hidden Costs of the Port of Barú in Panama

In the lush Chiriquí province of western Panama, a region known for its towering mountains, biodiverse rainforests, and rich coastal ecosystems, a proposed mega-development is stirring debate. The $200 million Port of Barú project promises economic growth and job creation—but it also threatens to unravel one of Panama’s most ecologically valuable coastal regions.
