The Wounan
January 31, 2015
The Nimiipuu welcomed visitors from the Wounan Tribe in Panama recently.
The Wounan are one of seven different indigenous groups in Panama. They live primarily in the Darien region of Panama and the Choco department in Colombia, although they have communities in other regions of both countries. In 1983, Panamanian Law created the Comarca Embera-Wounaan, an autonomous area covering over 1 million acres that represents 27 percent of the Darien region. Originally cogoverned by the Wounaan and Embera, the two split governance in 1983 as the Wounaan felt they were underrepresented given their smaller population numbers.Historically, the Wounaan were hunters, gatherers, and adept fisherfolk.
