Vinculación entre el Ordenamiento Territorial y la gestión del agua en Argentina y en la provincia de Buenos Aires. Análisis de aspectos normativos e institucionales (2003-2019)

Spatial Planning (SP) and Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) constitute central instruments to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) foreseen in the 2030 Agenda. Although there is a recognition of the importance of linking these policies, their connection has been scarcely studied. This work analyzes the link of normative and institutional aspects between SP and water management public policies in Argentina and the Buenos Aires Province (BAP) in the period 2003-2019. The methodological procedure included the review of relevant aspects of these policies at the national and provincial level, with emphasis on the main laws and proposed plans. At the national level, the ab-sence of laws on both issues stands out; as well as the few points in common between them, with the exception of risk management. In the BAP there are two norms that strong-ly condition SP and water management at the local level, being their relationship weak. The research carried out makes it possible to highlight the importance of linking these processes from a comprehensive perspective in order to contribute to sustainability with-in the framework of the SDGs. tos de ley); los planes de gestión (principios rectores, planes estratégicos y planes de obras); los documentos oficiales publicados (objetivos, rol o misión de los organismos, organigramas); y los artículos periodísticos que anunciaran reuniones o encuentros entre actores, así como también cambios en las estructuras organizativas de los organismos del Estado.
