1. IntroductionObjectives• Review the most important
consequences of this drought, with the
reduction of water supply for many of users, and considerable
impactsfor the country´s economy.
• Provide examples of how the national public administration
hasresponded both in normal times and during the current
drought,including: Progress of water conservation opportunities and
challenges inColombia Hosted a national seminar to bring together
200 water leaders toaddress issues of drought response and
integrated resource planning.

Issues High loss water
• Agriculture use 60 %• Domestic use40-60%
High water extraction from fresh surface andgroundwater
sources.
Reduction of availability of water sources due todry
periods.
Source: El Tiempo (March, 2014)
Example: Casanare DepartmentDrought
More than 80 % of the municipalities aresupplied by sources that
do not have sufficientflow for this purpose.
Approximately 110,000 people affected by watershortages and
involvement of animals in thedepartment of Casanare by drought
conditions.

Consequences
Higher water demand produces higherwastewater flows wastewater
treatment costsincreases.Water shortages and rationing. In 2015 and
2016
there were more than 100 municipalities that hadrationing. The
economic loss in 2015 by the involvement of
forest fires in forests was approximately,equivalent to 0.063 %
of GDP in 2015 (DNP* ,2016)".Conflicts over water use.Water
inefficiency involves higher costs in drinking
water supply systems.Reducing water availability

3. Institutional framework
Main Objective: Ensure the sustainability of waterresources
through management and anefficient and effective use ,
articulatedto land management and theconservation of ecosystems
thatregulate water supply, consideringwater as a factor of
economicdevelopment and social welfare, andimplementing process
equitable andinclusive participation.

4. Regulatory frameworkIn 1974 was formulated the Renewable
Natural Resources and Environmental ProtectionCode, it defined as
one of the principles, the use efficiency of natural resources.
Sincethen, the government has development some instruments aim to
promote water useefficiency.
In 1997 was formulated Law 373. This established Efficiency and
Water Saving Programs(PUEAA).
The use efficiency and save water programs are a strategy to
integrate and articulate aneffort done by institutions in order to
face drought, moreover these are an opportunityto change use
paradigm among all Colombians.
In 2015 was compilated all of decree of Environment and
Sustainable DevelopmentSector in the Decree 1076.

Goal 7. To guarantee the environment support
Conference RÍO+ 20“Improve methods of conservation and
management of our water sources to promotedevelopment and prevent
desertification ”.
“Lack of water is one of the leading causes of hunger and
malnutrition . The way toincrease food production using less water
is one of the major challenges for the comingdecades. This
represents an increase of production per unit of water or
efficiency in wateruse . Techniques for achieving this are often
the same as those used for sustainableintensification of
agricultural production ... A 50% reduction in losses and food
wasteworldwide could save 1,350 km3 per year, Recycling and ...
reuse of wastewater , both inagriculture and in urban and rural
uses , can help fill the increasing scarcity of water”(FAO, 2012c y
2012 d) .
