AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

El Niño Emergency: Panama declared a nationwide state of emergency as El Niño strengthens, with forecasts pointing to lower rainfall through early 2027 and impacts that could last until May—threatening water supplies, agriculture, hydropower, and even Panama Canal operations. Canal Water Crunch: The Canal Authority is already tightening transits as drought worsens, with daily slots set to fall again in September (from 36 to 34, then to 32), alongside draft limits—raising the stakes for a key global shipping chokepoint. Water Diplomacy Push: At World Water Week, the Global Water Partnership Organisation launched a Global Ambassadors’ Forum to mobilize water investment and “water economic diplomacy,” with Panama among participating countries. Mangrove Cleanup: In Veracruz, MiAMBIENTE and partners removed 8,818 pounds of solid waste from a mangrove area, highlighting ongoing local action to protect coastal and marine resources. Fisheries Transparency: Panama endorsed the Mombasa Declaration, backing stronger vessel and fisheries data transparency—while groups like FiTI and CFT warn implementation must be verifiable. Shipping Disruption Ripple: Global container congestion has topped 4.3 million TEU waiting to berth, with storms and schedule unreliability compounding delays that can feed into higher freight costs.
