Through the identification of the characteristics of the basic sanitation service, access to safe water and the management classes implemented, as well as the particularities of the community development of the referred sector given the significance that each of these elements represents integral health, both physical and psychological of each human being at any stage of the life cycle. Throughout this research, it is possible to identify that the sanitation service and drinking water systems correspond to human rights that guarantee a dignified life for people and favor community development that strengthens the organization and participation of the community. However, there is still a lot to work from the public field and, where appropriate, also the collaboration of private entities to promote the comprehensive well-being of the inhabitants of the Azama community from their active social participation.
