    Abstract
    This chapter discusses some of the main ramifications of Cotacachi's unsafe and unreliable water supply. In particular, water is a public health issue, becoming a primary vector for spreading a number of diseases and bacterial infections throughout the watershed. Specifically, the chapter evaluates and explores capacity to manage water systems in Cotacachi through community organizations.
