Panamá - Embera Ipeti
IHI has established partnerships with mainland communities located a few hours by road from Panamá City. The Embera Ipeti community experiences extreme levels of poverty and has very limited access to health services and routine care. IHI has conducted an initial needs assessment with the community.
Onsite outreach and planning have been tremendously impacted by COVID-19. IHI has tentative plans to return these communities in 2021 and 2022.
