Planificación; gestión; recurso hídrico; América Latina; agua. The current status of water resources management and planning in Latin America and the Caribbean countries is described and discussed. The analysis is based on recent studies made on this subject. The available information is updated and duly verified the reality of legislation, institutions and organizations in the countries of the region. Currently planning and integrated management of water resources have been characterized by great diversity of approaches for the legal and institutional aspects. These processes are anticipated by long debates and constant proposals to reform the few approved water laws (Dourojeanni & Jouravlev, 2002). Some countries like Mexico and Chile have more successful experiences conducive to achieving important goals, however, they still require the necessary continuity in time and coverage and nowadays are only isolated cases. Se destaca el estado actual de los recursos hídricos en los países de América Latina y el Caribe, con énfasis en los aspectos de planificación y gestión. El análisis se basa en los estudios más recientes sobre el tema, a partir de los cuales se aportan elementos como información actualizada y debidamente verificada sobre la realidad legislativa, institucional y organizativa de los países de la región. La planificación y gestión integrada del agua se ha caracterizado por una gran diversidad de enfoques legales e institucionales, más la presencia de largos debates que anteceden anteproyectos de leyes de aguas y constantes propuestas de reformas a las pocas leyes aprobadas (Dourojeanni & Jouravlev, 2002). Algunos países, como México y Chile, presentan experiencias más exitosas conducentes a lograr objetivos importantes, sin embargo, aún requieren la continuidad necesaria en el tiempo y la cobertura requerida y por el momento solo constituyen casos aislados. 2013-03-22 2017-09-19T20:36:48Z 2017-09-19T20:36:48Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares https://revistas.tec.ac.cr/index.php/tec_marcha/article/view/1117 10.18845/tm.v26i1.1117 https://hdl.handle.net/2238/7949 spa https://revistas.tec.ac.cr/index.php/tec_marcha/article/view/1117/1030 application/pdf Editorial Tecnológica de Costa Rica Revista Tecnología en Marcha; Vol. 26, Núm. 1 (2013); pág. 3-18 2215-3241 0379-3982
