From the corridors of power in San Salvador to the migrant trails through Panama’s dense jungles, Central America remains a region where political transformation and human drama intersect in profound ways. This collection examines the complex realities shaping the isthmus today—from El Salvador’s controversial constitutional changes under President Nayib Bukele to the lingering shadows of America’s Cold War interventions, and from the ongoing migration crisis stranding thousands in Panama to quieter moments of reflection on the Pacific shores. Through on-the-ground reporting and historical analysis, these pieces capture a region in constant flux, where past and present collide to shape the futures of millions seeking security, democracy, and opportunity.
