Prolonged periods of drought are already wreaking havoc in Latin American and Caribbean cities. Urban growth that does not care about the water balance of their water sources, combined with alterations in rainfall patterns due to climate change, are aspects that invite us to rethink the way in which cities will ensure access to water from now on. In this episode we present solutions that seek to diversify the way water is accessed, promote circularity in water management and bring the water cycle back into the urban fabric.
