Item The functionality of the socio-technical components of community-managed water in Andean rural communities in Bolivia(Universidad Católica Boliviana "San Pablo" - VLIR UOS., 2019) Guillén Aguirre, Natalie; Arias - Uriona, Ana MaríaThis study aimed to analyse the association between the functionality of community water organisations (CWO) and different aspects related to community-based water management (CBWM) such as the supply source, the system functionality, financial sustainability of service and sustainable management practices. Household interviews were collected in 35 rural communities in Pucarani, Bolivia. Results show that a functioning CWO was associated with accessing to piped water; having sufficient water; being affiliated to the CWO; saving water practices along with the community and having water during the dry season. It was also negatively associated with the continuity of the service.
