Abstract

In this research, it is argued that drinking water services directly influence the economy, health and social conflicts, generating social or family water stress. During primary education in 2000, the author focused his attention on classes, sports, and childhood issues. In retrospect, he remembers that the water supplied at school was not potable, creating an unhealthy environment, especially for classmates from remote areas without access to potable water in their homes. This problem persists at the national level, affecting children and young people who go through their education without access to drinking water at home or at school.
