Propuesta de un modelo de co-gestión para los Peque?os Abastos Comunitarios de Agua en Colombia

摘要

This paper reviews the conceptual evolution of Community Based Monitoring (CBM) from different approaches : social capital, common pool resources and co-management or collaborative management, and presents the main co-management strategies applied to water supply at small scale: local and community driven development (LCDD) and sustainable services at scale (SSS). Supported by this theoretical background, and in order to improve access to drinking water in rural communities in Colombia, the authors propose a co-management model for small and community water supplies.
