La sustentabilidad en la conservación y utilización de mares-océanos y recursos marinos en América Latina y el Caribe siglo XXI.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the trends and challenges of sustainability in the conservation and exploitation of marine resources in Latin America and the Caribbean in the 21st Century, from a private legal perspective and in the context of globalization. The problem addressed is the overexploitation of marine resources, environmental degradation, and lack of effective regulation in the region, which jeopardizes biodiversity, marine ecosystems, and the well-being of coastal communities. Therefore, the need to investigate sustainability in this area is proposed to contribute to the preservation of the oceans and promote equitable socio-economic development. The methodology employed is based on documentary research, conducting an exhaustive bibliographic review of primary and secondary sources, as well as the international and national regulatory framework related to the management of marine resources. A descriptive approach is adopted to detail relevant phenomena and trends. The expected results include the identification of major environmental trends, the analysis of private legal factors influencing sustainability, and the evaluation of associated socio-economic, environmental, and technological challenges. This contributes to providing an objective overview of improving the management and governance of marine resources in the region, promoting responsible practices, technological innovation, and the participation of all stakeholders toachieve a balance between conservation and sustainable use.
