Freshwater systems provide a wide range of resources and services that are often vulnerable to climate change and other human pressures that affect millions of people who live there. The implementation of a management plan for water security in a rural community in the State of Guerrero, Mexico; contributed to the increase in water security under a Logical Framework approach with its variant of objectives nested in cascading matrices. Where workshops and meetings were developed to work on communal activities, strengthening organization, participation and care of the environment.

This approach provided a rapid and participatory way to choose options, taking into account multiple impacts, sectors, dimensions of resilience and stakeholder perspectives. The measures indicated in the projects revolve around increasing human and social capital (organization, training and community participation) so that their implementation is expected to contribute to the improvement of water governance.

Keywords : Water security; food security; community participation; solution alternatives.
