La complejidad de las aglomeraciones urbanas han aumentado. Las ciudades se han transformado en territorios que presentan importantes desafíos de gobernanza, coordinación inter-jurisdiccional y financiamiento. Aproximadamente el 47% de la población de América Latina y el Caribe vive en 180 aglomerados urbanos con una población de más de 100.000 habitantes, lo que equivale a cerca de 265 millones de personas. Gran parte de estos núcleos urbanos son Áreas Metropolitanas. Ante la necesidad de definir una nueva forma de afrontar los problemas derivados del crecimiento de las áreas urbanas que involucran a más de una municipalidad, se hace relevante poner en discusión diversas visiones y experiencias para entender cómo se puede abordar de manera coordinada y colaborativa la gestión metropolitana. Esta publicación presenta una colección de experiencias, voces y territorios para convertirse en un documento que permita promover reflexiones y propuestas para la implementación de nuevas gobernanzas en Áreas Metropolitanas.
