| Abstract (English): |
Access to potable water and basic sanitation poses a significant challenge in small Cuban cities with deteriorated infrastructure. This study presents a technical methodology adapted to local conditions for evaluating water and sanitation projects with international cooperation. Six case studies from different regions of the country were analyzed, considering relevance, effectiveness, sustainability, and impact on water quality. The methodology, based on quantitative and qualitative tools, identified deficiencies and proposed technical solutions to improve the performance of supply systems. The results show significant improvements in service coverage and quality, benefiting more than 100,000 people. This work provides practical tools for evaluating and managing hydraulic projects, promoting more efficient resource use and sustainable impacts in vulnerable communities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |

El acceso al agua potable y al saneamiento básico constituye un desafío en pequeñas ciudades de Cuba con infraestructuras deterioradas. Este estudio presenta una metodología técnica adaptada a las condiciones locales para evaluar proyectos de agua y saneamiento con cooperación internacional. Se analizaron seis casos en diferentes regiones del país, considerando pertinencia, eficacia, sostenibilidad e impacto en la calidad del agua. La metodología, basada en herramientas cuantitativas y cualitativas, permitió identificar deficiencias y proponer soluciones técnicas que mejoran el funcionamiento de los sistemas de abasto. Los resultados evidencian mejoras significativas en la cobertura y calidad del servicio, beneficiando a más de 100,000 personas. Este trabajo aporta herramientas prácticas para evaluar y gestionar proyectos hidráulicos, promoviendo un uso más eficiente de los recursos y un impacto sostenible en comunidades vulnerables.
