dc.descriptionThis report (in Spanish) offers a grounded and richly detailed exploration of how water use and environmental health intersect with economic development in Latin America. Through real case studies from Mexico, Peru, Venezuela, Chile, Brazil, and Colombia, it reveals the practical challenges faced by governments, engineers, and communities as they manage water in diverse and often fragile settings. From drought-prone valleys to flood-exposed deltas, the document brings to light the human and ecological consequences of large-scale irrigation, urban demand, and hydroelectric expansion. It illustrates how weak institutional coordination and uneven development can deepen both environmental harm and social inequality. Instead of abstract solutions, it calls for water planning that listens—integrating local knowledge, long-term resilience, and the lived experiences of affected populations.en
