hi,

in this slam of eco-groups, i recall we were discussing ecotourism...
i finally remembered an example of an indegnous people who seem to be
taking advantage of the economic/social/political opportunities inherent
withing ecotoursim.

the cuna, of panama, are operating a very successful operation. if you are
looking to become invovlved in setting up something, or want more information
about the cuna, there's a bunch of material available-- from the panamanian
consul.
