The growth and strengthening of the Panamanian state are due not only to its economic and institutional advances, but also to the way these are integrated within a governance framework that guarantees citizen participation, transparency, and effectiveness in public administration. e objective of this research was to examine the relationship between the growth, strengthening and governance of the Panamanian Nation, highlighting the processes of the State, the management of its resources with transparency, participation and sustainability. This descriptive study, with a documentary approach, focused on reviewing 59 bibliographic references from the academic databases Scopus, Web of Science, Redalyc, Dialnet, and Google Scholar. These references, published in Spanish, were identified by 24 of the references, which were considered relevant to the topic. The authors' arguments and approaches were then synthesized in a table. The analysis identified the factors that shaped the evolutionary growth process, with the Gross Domestic Product showing positive increases of 7.2%, 8.7%, and 9.5% for the period from 2005 to 2007, respectively. This analytical indicator fostered confidence and attracted greater investment. In subsequent years, however, the results have not been as encouraging, with percentages fluctuating and remaining below the level achieved in 2007. It is important to highlight that the nation's growth is closely linked to the administrative capacity to adapt, innovate, and lead change processes that address current challenges. In conclusion, Panama's growth is intrinsically tied to governance and governability, with the public administrative capacity to adapt, innovate, and lead change processes that respond to current challenges.
