Abstract
Panama, as a strategic country in the Central American region, faces the challenge of global terrorism, which has evolved and diversified. To counter this threat, the country has implemented several strategies focused on prevention and international cooperation. Panama has updated its legal framework to classify and punish acts of terrorism, aligning with international regulations, the country has established alliances with organizations such as the UN, the OAS and Interpol, participating in initiatives for the exchange of information and best practices, Training programs have been carried out for security forces in techniques of prevention and response to terrorist acts, awareness and education campaigns are promoted for citizens, encouraging the reporting of suspicious activities. Panama has improved its intelligence capacity to detect and prevent threats, including surveillance of extremist groups and analysis of financial networks. Through these strategies, Panama seeks not only to protect its territory, but also to contribute to regional and global security, understanding that terrorism is a problem that transcends borders and requires a joint and coordinated response.
