Whale Fiesta at IWC Meeting Panama

Greenpeace campaigners joined with Almanaque Azul, Ciudad del Saber, Fudacion Albatross Media, IFAW, GREENPEACE, TVN, and The Whaleman Foundation (IWC) to press the International Whaling Commission for a whale sanctuary in the Southern Ocean as the IWC met in Panama City for their 64th annual meeting. A display of posters and billboards covered Panama City highlighting the magesty of whales and the horror of their slaughter. People joined in a Fiesta with drummers, stilt walkers, banners, a giant inflatable whale and an aerial art piece executed by Spectral Q at the City of Knowledge.
