Territorios Hidrosociales: una metodología para promover la seguridad hídrica ante el cambio climático a través de la gobernanza, visión y acción participativa

“…El desarrollo de nuevas formas de regulación del agua a escala local y nacional reconfiguran los THs de las comunidades, y los procesos de su constitución y transformación exigen ir más allá de las representaciones dicotómicas que separan la naturaleza de la sociedad (Rusca et al, 2019;Ioris, 2016;Hoogesteger et al, 2016;Vos & Hinojosa, 2016). El TH es contrario a la visión tradicional del agua como recurso económico definido en términos de cantidad y calidad y sometido a las leyes de la demanda y la oferta del mercado; este enfoque tradicional en sí ha contribuido a deteriorar las relaciones entre los actores hidrosociales (Swyngedouw, 2009;Molchak et al, 2021;Harou et al, 2009).…”
