Abstract

Good management of water resources goes beyond a mere political or socio-economic exercise. It is a responsibility on a global scale, which has to begin with appropriate actions at a local level. The addition of small local projects under unified planning, regulation and management criteria will determine an inflection point in sustainable management of water at a planetary level. It is like a chamber orchestra where every instrument plays its role in a certain location, but always under the unified coordination of a conductor who sets the “tempo”, the intensity, the rhythm and the idiosyncrasy of each individual action.
