This article discusses the concept of land-use management, from a practical perspective, to identify their current challenges, especially from the ecological conservation based on the experience of Central America and in particular of Costa Rica. An introduction to the concept of land-use management by reviewing their approaches from the geography scopes with the objective of identifying some inconsistencies lying in the space dynamics of the region, as well related to the urgency to implement actions to harmonize regulatory plans with strategies for ecological conservation for both the spaces that have some category of protection as well as those that do not have these declares. The above vision based on the ecosystem that deals with the ecological conservation as a transverse axis of all the territories and with an articulation of the elements of the spaces. Finally, we discuss some conclusions as priority actions to incorporate within the instruments of master plans.
