Guna Congress Approves the Kuna Yala Bioregional Marine Sanctuary

Very thankful! Brother Douglas Tolchin and I shared the vision of the Kuna Yala Bioregional Marine Sanctuary in 2016 with the Guna Congress.

Today the Kuna Yala Bioregional Marine Sanctuary, July 29, 2022, was approved by the Guna Congress. The map below was developed by brother Doug Tolchin in consultation with the Kuna Congress and the Kuna people through our Four Worlds Foundation at the City of Knowlege, Panama City, Panama.

A large group of Guna men and women, some seated in front and others standing behind, pose together in a meeting room before a projected map.
