The Jews of Panama: A Thriving Community Between Two Oceans
Hosted By: Qesher
Qesher presents a virtual journey into Panama, home to the largest continuously existing Jewish community in Central America. With a population of 10,000–12,000, Panama’s Jewish community has grown through waves of immigration, including recent arrivals fleeing instability in other Latin American countries. The session explores the community’s unique history, from the end of Spanish colonial rule to producing two Jewish presidents in the 20th century, alongside its spiritual, cultural, and gastronomic life.
