Summing up
The Latin American construction industry is navigating a complex landscape characterised by political instability, economic challenges and environmental impacts.

To tackle current issues, standardising contracts and enhancing labour skills through improved education and training systems are crucial. Embracing AI and digital tools will be essential for optimising project efficiency and achieving sustainable growth in the construction sector.
