    The doctoral thesis addresses the complex issue of territorial governance and access to ecosystem services in the context of hydroelectric production, focusing specifically on the San Carlos and Calderas hydroelectric plants in Eastern Antioquia, Colombia. This research is framed within a context of environmental, ecological, and climatic crisis, where public policies, hydroelectric production, and conservation face significant challenges. Territorial governance becomes a crucial point concerning access to ecosystem services, and its analysis becomes essential to understand how organizational, regulatory, and institutional structures interact with local social and economic dynamics. The study is structured into seven chapters, addressing problematization, literature review, theoretical and conceptual positioning, methodological design, results, and contributions of the doctoral thesis. The problematization highlights the importance of understanding how global influence impacts national policies, generating tensions around the management of natural resources such as water. It explores the power asymmetries and conflicts that arise in areas near hydroelectric projects, evidencing how local communities interact with non-human biodiversity and global economic dynamics. The general objective of the research is to understand the constitution of territorial governance concerning access to ecosystem services in the San Carlos and Calderas hydroelectric plants. To achieve this objective, specific objectives are proposed, including describing the institutional, economic, social, and environmental conditions, analyzing the interactions between actors, and explaining the institutional arrangements and organizational modes that mediate the interaction between actors in the territory. The literature review and theoretical and conceptual positioning provide a solid theoretical framework, exploring concepts such as ontology in socio-ecological systems, territorial governance, notions of territory(ies), and ecosystem services. Research gaps are identified, and a methodological approach is established that combines institutional and hermeneutic analysis with an intrinsic and historiographic case study method. The results are divided into three chapters, where the conditions of possibility in territorial governance and access to ecosystem services, the interactions between actors, and the logics of action, as well as the organizational modes of interaction, are analyzed. Tensions and conflicts around watershed management, environmental conservation, and peasant economy in hydrosocial and agroecological territories are highlighted. Finally, the contributions of the doctoral thesis are presented in theoretical, methodological, practical, and administrative aspects. The expanded understanding of territorial governance is emphasized, and existing organizational modes in hydroelectric plants that mediate the interaction between actors for access to ecosystem services are identified. In summary, the thesis provides a comprehensive and detailed vision of territorial governance in the context of hydroelectric production, significantly contributing to the understanding of the challenges and opportunities in the sustainable management of natural resources and ecosystem services.
