Development of a methodological tool to incorporate disaster risk analysis in public investments on water access and water treatment projects, mainstreaming criteria for adaptation to climate change. Faced with the challenges posed by this global pandemic, the infrastructure for the provision of the public services of water, sewerage and wastewater treatment is essential in the territories. This guide will promote -green infrastructure-, while improving capacities in municipalities and provinces, contributing to the much-needed territorial institutional strengthening. This measure will help the poor to access basic sanitation services and improve their health through better water quality, which will impact inequality. This measure will also reduce environmental degradation of ecosystems affected by non-treated wastewaters and will prepare subnational governments to adapt to climate change regarding water access and treatment conditions.
