Abstract

Water supply in Cuba is affected by economic and financial limitations, along with the effects of climate change, which have increased droughts and impacted basic services for the population. Sanitation systems are also inefficient due to their insufficiency. To address these challenges, the Cuban government, with the support of the Water and Sanitation Cooperation Fund (FCAS), implemented the project "Improvement and Expansion of Water Supply and Sanitation Systems in Small Cuban Cities" (2010), which included the construction and rehabilitation of water treatment plants, networks, water meters, and treatment facilities. A methodology was designed to evaluate the social and technical impacts of the project, allowing for the correction of deficiencies and achieving the proposed goals.
