Our contribution to LAC: Science and policy gaps

•Building data and information •Modeling and decision support tools (i.e. HydroBID + RIOS)•Green solutions “engineering”•Financing and enabling mechanisms and incentives (Water Funds)•Piloting projects and experiences

QUITO: Water supply vulnerability

EMAAP-Q Master plan (Hazen and Sawyer 2011)

Observations:

• The Supply situation is already stressed with supplies in periods lower than the projected demand

• Groundwater extraction increased in near future.

• Demand reducing measures suggested.
