The 2024 World ORT Ecology Summer School has taken place in Panama. This regional summer school, which runs in Spanish, brings together ORT students from our Latin American and Spanish schools who are passionate about ecology.
Twenty-one students aged 15-17 from Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Panama, Peru, Spain, and Venezuela, along with ORT teachers Ximena Grandez Breña (Peru) and Tania Amilburu (Spain) spent two weeks in the Gamboa Rainforest in Soberania National Park, working with experts from the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute and Adopta Bosque, a non-profit NGO promoting rainforest conservation, conducting scientific ecological research.
