    Emmanuel Gutierrez explains recent debate of Municipal candidates & how Nosara needs updated census ASAP & NGO’s are not best way to help local Tico populace

    Emmanuel Gutierrez recaps Nosara‘s recent elections & how many of the competing NGO’s are missing the point of helping Nosara‘s locals in a true and effective manner, and perhaps most importantly, how badly Nosara needs a census to update how many people are living here as soon as possible (this will cost 125k).


    The first part of video is the debate that ADC (Alianza para el Desarrollo Comunitario) organized with the candidates for the Municipal elections. Stay tuned for more from Alianza para Desarrollo Comunitario).

    He explains Nosara is missing funding available from the government and has become far too comfortable raising its own capital year after year from the very same sources. He explains an updated census will allow us to receive government funding to truly cover the local populace living here, who are trying to survive in this rapidly evolving community.
