“…Los biocriterios han sido sugeridos sólo como herramienta complementaria recientemente (CONAMA 2004) y actualmente, no existe información sobre la calidad biológica del agua en Chile, salvo estudios científicos específicos (MMA 2011), con un número importante de estudios limnológicos que han caracterizado a los Lagos Araucanos aportando información biológica, basada en la concentración y diversidad del fitoplancton y zooplancton (De los Ríos y Soto 2002y 2009, De los Ríos-Escalante 2008, DGA 2011, 2012, 2014, Woelfl et al 2003) y algunos estudios de comunidades bentónicas (Figueroa et al 2003, De los Ríos-Escalante et al 2007, 2016.…”

“…como base de una política de aguas, en cuanto a que "las características físicas del agua generan un grado extremadamente alto, y en muchos casos imprevisible, de interrelación e interdependencia (externalidades o efectos externos) entre los usos y usuarios de agua en una cuenca". La gestión del agua a nivel de cuencas ha sido recomendada repetidas veces por la OCDE (Akhmouch 2012, OCDE 2011, 2016.…”

“…In fact, the WHO/ UNICEF Joint Monitoring program recognizes the need to monitor water quality as one of the key current challenges in the water and sanitation sector worldwide. In Latin America, an estimated 36.8 million people lack access to safe sources of drinking water (Akhmouch, 2012).…”

“…Small rural communities or communities distant from the municipal center fall outside the interest of the usual water providers, as they are attractive neither to governments aiming to reach large populations nor to international private providers owing to their lack of profitability (WHO/UNICEF, 2012). As a result, some studies have called for alternative ways of developing water systems, such as through cooperatives, non-profit organizations and communitybased management (Akhmouch, 2012). However, community-based systems often do not work, owing to the technology challenges described above.…”
