Abstract

Este reporte constituye un esfuerzo por entender los retos más críticos que las ciudades de América Latina enfrentan actualmente para su desarrollo. Para ello se resalta el concepto de accesibilidad, es decir la capacidad que tienen los hogares y las firmas de alcanzar las oportunidades que ofrece la ciudad. La accesibilidad depende de cuatro ámbitos de política pública que están íntimamente ligados entre sí: la planeación y regulación del uso del suelo, la movilidad urbana, el funcionamiento del mercado de vivienda y la existencia de mecanismos de coordinación metropolitana. El concepto de accesibilidad aparta la atención del debate sobre si las ciudades deben ser más o menos compactas. Esta puede lograrse bajo distintas formas urbanas, con diferentes tamaños y niveles de densidad poblacional. Las políticas públicas deben, entonces, enfocarse en aumentar el acceso a oportunidades. Los esfuerzos que se hagan en esta dirección tendrán que considerar el hecho de que las ciudades de América Latina tenderán a expandirse debido al proceso secular de desarrollo económico, que lleva a los hogares a buscar viviendas más grandes y a utilizar el automóvil en mayor proporción.
