Community organization, values and social capital in Panama
Pena, Junho Maria-Valeria | Lindo-Fuentes, Hector
This report examines how communities have been organized to promote community development in Panama. The data of the report draws on a Living Standard Measurement Survey (LSMS) conducted in 1997, and interviews from a Social Capital Qualitative Survey (SCQS) in the same year. The report is organized into two parts. Part I explores the LSMS and SCQS with respect to the nature of the communities: a) how they identify themselves; b) how they organized themselves; c) their mobilizing issues; d) how they perceive recent changes in their living standards; and e) how communities relate to the external world. Part II explores the nature of communities' social capital, examining: i) trends in social capital by type of communities (urban, rural, indigenous); ii) social capital and internal community relations (including horizontal relations, gender, leadership, and norms); iii) the relationship between social capital and poverty, education, and perceived living standards; and iv) the relationship between social capital and external assistance.
