Abstract

Los países de América Latina y El Caribe avanzan hacia una mayor urbanización, pero la población rural no desaparecerá. Se estima que, en 2030, algunos países tendrán una población rural superior al 30%. A su vez, el conjunto de cambios sociales, económicos y políticos están diseñando lo que se ha denominado “la nueva ruralidad”.El acceso a agua y saneamiento es un derecho humano. Pese a los avances logrados en las dos últimas décadas, se mantienen las brechas de cobertura entre áreas rurales y urbanas y entre acceso a agua y a saneamiento. Sin embargo, se tienen experiencias exitosas validadas en programas con un amplio componente de participación comunitaria, tales como los de Ecuador, Bolivia, Honduras, Nicaragua y Perú; en varios casos, se cuenta con estrategias de intervención en las que las comunidades rurales implementan la contratación de servicios de los proveedores para acceder a la rehabilitación o construcción de sus sistemas de agua potable y saneamiento básico.
