Law 543 of July 7, 2026 establishes mandatory identification of origin and differentiation of original, substitute and imitation food products in Panama, with the objective of protecting consumers and domestic producers, preventing misleading commercial practices and ensuring clear information about the nature and origin of food products. The Law requires commercial establishments to visibly identify products as domestic or imported, display the product name in Spanish and indicate the country of origin, and clearly warn consumers when products are substitutes or imitations. Substitute and imitation products must carry specific signage and be physically separated by at least one meter from original products. Imported food products must be marketed under the same technical specifications and origin conditions under which they entered the country, and frozen meat products may not be presented in a manner that could cause consumers to confuse them with fresh domestic products. The Consumer Protection and Competition Defense Authority (ACODECO) is responsible for enforcement, with fines of up to fifteen thousand balboas and certain violations classified as food fraud. The Law also requires consumer-awareness and education campaigns, repeals Law 113 of 2019 and will enter into force one year after promulgation.

This initiative is a Specific Investment Loan operation (HO-L1259) in Honduras, to be executed by ICF, aimed at conserving and restoring forest cover and associated ecosystem services in prioritized areas. Its overall objective is to conserve and restore forest cover, with specific objectives to: (i) increase adoption of forest and agroforestry practices (AFS/SPS) that expand forest cover, (ii) diversify livelihoods in community forestry, and (iii) strengthen ICF’s institutional capacity for forest conservation and management. The project targets selected municipalities in Olancho, Yoro, Atlántida, Colón and El Paraíso, prioritized through environmental and social criteria related to restoration, hydrology and climate vulnerability, among others. The components include: (I) implementation of agroforestry and silvopastoral systems through technical assistance and technology packages, (II) community forest management via business plans, integrated technical assistance and knowledge exchanges, and (III) institutional strengthening of ICF (forest registry/monitoring, wildfire risk prevention/management, regulatory updates, and land tenure-related aspects). Total financing is US$25 million (60% regular and 40% concessional ordinary capital), with Category B environmental and social classification and Substantial E&S risk, supported by required E&S management instruments (ESA/ESMP/SEP) and applicable Environmental and Social Performance Standards.

This initiative is a Technical Cooperation (HA-T1341) in Haiti to support sustainable rural and agricultural development, focusing on strengthening implementation of the PAPAIR operation (HA-J0002) and identifying new investment opportunities to improve productivity, food security, and climate resilience in the country’s northern region. The TC responds to delays and limited operational capacity within MARNDR to implement PAPAIR (low disbursement rate and challenges in procurement, operational management, and planning), compounded by political, institutional, and security instability. Its specific objectives are to: (i) strengthen the Ministry’s capacity to implement PAPAIR, (ii) extract lessons learned from past and ongoing operations (including incentive mechanisms, subsidies, and technical assistance instruments, as well as private-sector experiences), and (iii) support the design of new strategies and investments (including sustainable value chains and a feasibility study for rehabilitating irrigation infrastructure). The TC is structured into three components: implementation support to PAPAIR through consultancies (procurement/contract management, rural infrastructure, M&E, gender and diversity), lessons learned, and identification/design of new strategies and investments; with outputs shared with public authorities, private-sector actors, and development partners. It will be executed by the IDB at the request of the Government of Haiti, in close coordination with MARNDR (monthly meetings and a designated focal point), funded by OC-SDP resources from W1D and W2A/W2B windows totaling US$300,000 over 24 months, starting on September 1, 2025.
