This issue of the FAL Bulletin shows productivity trends at container terminals in Latin America and the Caribbean during the period from 2005 to 2013, comparing them to the trend of earlier years (2000 to 2004). One of the conclusions of the study is that most terminals in the region have improved their quay productivity in recent years, although there are large differences between the three container terminal size categories analysed. However, the author identifies a number of challenges still to be met at the region’s ports.

This FAL Bulletin is part of a series on ports and maritime trade in the region. It is closely related to Issue No. 337 - Number 1 / 2015, which sets out the need for a new port governance in the region to address the new circumstances that have arisen in the maritime market. As such, and given the need for contextual information, this Bulletin is divided into two sections, the first devoted to the current status of world maritime trade (with special focus on container trade), and the second detailing the situation of the shipping industry.

This FAL Bulletin details the situation of the shipping industry and forms the second and final part of a larger document that begins with Issue No. 338, which puts the current status of maritime trade in context. Both documents fit into a series of bulletins about ports and maritime trade in the region and are, therefore, closely linked to Issue No. 337, which sets out the need for a new port governance in the region to address the new circumstances that have arisen in the maritime market.

La evolución del paradigma de desarrollo sostenible hacia la enumeración integrada de las áreas económicas, sociales y ambientales, las cuales en su conjunto impactan sobre la calidad de la vida humana, facilita una mejor articulación entre el desempeño económico, social y ambiental del sector transporte y el progreso hacia el desarrollo sostenible. En la actualidad, más que continuar a sostener y justificar el vínculo general entre transporte y desarrollo, hace falta identificar cómo y bajo cuáles condiciones el sector de transporte puede brindar una contribución necesaria al logro de los objetivos post-2015. En este contexto, el presente documento busca ofrecer una visión del transporte marítimo basada en el contexto y los requerimientos del nuevo paradigma de desarrollo sostenible. Desde esta perspectiva, el documento evalúa los retos para los puertos de la región de América Latina, enfocándose en el desafío de la sostenibilidad en su sentido más amplio, y plantea la necesidad de cambios profundos de las políticas portuarias —cambios paradigmáticos que requieren una nueva gobernanza portuaria en la región.
