Durante la última década en Bolivia

Durante la última década en Bolivia se incrementó el interés por la preservación de los recursos hídricos y su calidad, así como el conocer la situación actual en la que se encuentran debido a que uno de los impactos más significativos del cambio climático puede apreciarse en la alteración del ciclo del agua. La Cuenca Katari ubicada en el departamento de La Paz, se determinó como área de estudio por su alta vulnerabilidad con respecto al recurso hídrico frente al inminente cambio climático, al no presentar mecanismos de adaptación para hacer frente al mismo. Considerando también, que los impactos generados por las actividades antropogénicas provenientes de un área densamente poblada, observando que la cuenca alberga el diez por ciento de la población total de Bolivia, representan un riesgo significativo hacia el medio; además del deficiente manejo de los recursos naturales en la cuenca, especialmente el agua.

El presente estudio desarrolla un Plan de Acción Estratégico para la cuenca con el fin de complementar y mejorar su Gestión Integral de Recursos Hidricos y el Manejo Integral de Cuenca. Para esto se propone la realización de un diagnóstico de la situación actual, que identifique los problemas existentes en la cuenca, esto en base al estado del arte de la misma que tomará en cuenta toda la información disponible sobre los programas, proyectos y planes en los cuales figura el área de estudio, identificando sus debilidades y fortalezas con el fin de realizar un aporte que coadyuve a optimizar el aprovechamiento del recurso hídrico dentro en la cuenca, buscando implementar una herramienta que ayude a hacer frente al impacto del cambio climático sobre el factor agua.

Over the last decade in Bolivia has increased interest in the preservation of water resources and their quality, as well as know the current situation in which are due to the fact that one of the most significant impacts of climate change can be seen in the alteration of the water cycle. The Katari basin located in the Department of La Paz, was determined as study area because of their high vulnerability with respect to water resources facing imminent climate change, not introducing mechanisms to deal with it. Whereas also, that them impacts generated by them activities anthropogenic from of an area densely populated, noting that the basin hosts the ten percent of the population total of Bolivia, represent a risk significant towards the medium; In addition to the poor management of those resources natural in the basin, especially the water.

During the last decade in Bolivia interest it increased for the preservation of water resources and quality, as well as the current situation in which they find themselves because one of the most significant impacts of climate change can be seen in the alteration water cycle. The Katari Basin located in the department of La Paz, was determined as a study area for its high vulnerability to water resources against the impending climate change, bearing no coping mechanisms to deal with it. Considering also that the impacts generated by anthropogenic activities from a densely populated area, noting that the basin is home to ten percent of the total population of Bolivia, represent a significant risk to the environment; in addition to the poor management of natural resources in the basin, especially the water.

This study develops a Strategic Action Plan for the basin in order to complement and enhance its Integrated Water Resources Management and Integrated Watershed Management. For this the realization of a diagnosis of the current situation, identifying the existing problems in the basin it is proposed that based on the state of the art it will take into account all available information on the programs, projects and plans in the which contained the study area, identifying their strengths and weaknesses in order to make a contribution that may help to optimize the use of water resources within the basin, seeking to implement a tool to help cope with the impact of climate change on the factor Water.

It is proposed to conduct a diagnosis of the current situation, identify the problems existing in this Basin, based on the State of the Art of the same which take account of all available information on programmes, Projects and plans in which is contained the Study Area, identifying their strengths and Weaknesses with the make a contribution to Help Optimize The use of water resources within the basin, looking to implement a tool to help address the impact of climate change on the water factor.
