Summary
As shown throughout the course of this book, the consolidation of human rights to water and sanitation has been growing, in recent years, as a legal obligation, as a guiding framework for public policies and as a banner for social movements. Its interpretation is gradually being seated on more consensual and solid bases and its implications for the enjoyment of rights are increasingly demonstrated, albeit timidly in some contexts.
