It is time.

Never has there been a moment in recent history more critical than right now to organize against the short-sighted agendas of federal, state and local governments, and corporations. The DataCenter provides strategic research and training support to grassroots organizations on the frontlines of this struggle. As you can see from our website, the DataCenter advances the social justice cause of multiple community-based organizations throughout the United States...as well as having an emerging role in indigenous movement-building in Canada and Mexico.

Plan Puebla Panama –
Battle over the future of Mesoamerica

Plan Puebla Panama (PPP) is a controversial $10 billion, 10-25 year megaproject to establish industrial corridors that link important ports, “free trade zones” and transportation routes from Puebla, Mexico, all the way through Central America to Panama.

The PPP represents one of the greatest threats to the social, economic and ecological integrity of Mesoamerica. Local, national, regional and global networks of social movements are building grassroots cross-border resistance and alternatives to the PPP.

Plan Puebla Panama—Battle over the future of Mesoamerica is a collection of essays from México, Guatemala, and the U.S. that unmasks PPP’s misleading promises and reports on key struggles that have succeeded in stopping parts of the plan. Produced by Network Opposed to Plan Puebla Panama (No-PPP), in collaboration with the DataCenter.
