Created with the purpose to promote culture and sustainable development in the area around the mining project, Fundacion Petaquilla works incessantly to promote agricultural production and conserve our natural resources. Change is evident as we travel to nearby communities such as Coclesito, San Juan de Turbe, Nuevo San José, Nazareno and Villa del Carmen where families have been able to share with us how the projects from Fundacion Petaquilla have changed their lives.

One of the many ways neighboring families have directly benefited from Petaquilla´s efforts are through education programs that teach them how to improve their farming and cattle raising techniques. By providing them with the right tools, hundreds of hardworking Panamanians are able to start their own businesses and become suppliers to various companies around the region. Opportunities like these not only create economic stability for workers around the project but also cultivate values of hard work and responsibility.
