Jardines en balsas

Country: Panamá

The project consists of accompanying a group of families who decided to resume the sowing practice known as zoteas, with which is carried out within a constant exchange of ancestral and contemporary knowledge. This monitoring also has the purpose of developing a botanical inventory of the existing plants in the territory; their common names in both Spanish and Embera -which is the most widely spoken indigenous language in the region-, and their medicinal, gastronomic and cultural uses.
