Agua y Territorio

Aims & Scope

The journal Agua y Territorio / Water and Landscape (AYT / WAL) is a digital publication, of a biannual nature, with free access, whose objective is to address from different scientific fields the problem of the use and management of water and its use for sustainable development.

In particular, it covers the following topics: a) Public policies and citizen participation.

Proper water management is the main tool for solving water supply and sanitation problems in today’s society.

In this area, the social participation and citizen movements are perceived as the element capable of countering the environmental and social conflicts that arise around water.

The study of water companies, their evolution and the assessment of their levels of failure and success also occupy an important place in this line of research. b) Water as a natural resource: development and environmental models.

The accelerated industrial, urban and demographic development of the past two centuries has been a major challenge in preserving the quality of water and its natural environments.

It has also had to deal with the major problem of supplying drinking water to a growing population and counteracting the polluting potential of water. c) Water and landscape.

Water has shaped human events since prehistoric times and has also shaped the rural landscape in a characteristic way.

Water landscapes are a clear example of the multiple facets of water as a configurator of territories in which cultures that have left their mark on the landscape have developed.[...]
