Water security, which is key for sustainable development, has been broadly investigated through different spatial scales, time frames and perspectives, as a multi-dimensional concept. Fast growth the diversity of urban environment add to challenges reaching good levels water security in cities. Yet, few studies have focused on evaluating heterogeneous distribution areas, step highlight where inequalities large cities are present how best guide interventions. The objective this research investigate heterogeneity well quantifying using new assessment presented paper. A holistic indicator-based evaluation framework intra-urban sectors city Campinas Brazil applied, followed by an inequality analysis describe aspects. correlation then carried out identify patterns high indicators. Results show that even though established overall conditions, still noticeable area. Quantification Theil index highlighted aspects, such vegetation cover, social green wastewater collection, inequitably distributed subsequent exposed areas outskirts infrastructure vulnerability coincide. This novel approach therefore successfully validated Brazil, it demonstrated our identifies what main they city. For first we associating with conventional potential help target need tackle specific issues crucial inform planning policy making inclusive management strategy.

Constructed Wetlands (CWs) are a type of nature-based solution that uses ecological engineering to treat wastewater. The legal feasibility implementing CWs as treatment system in urban residential areas has been researched various Latin American countries, including Chile, Peru, Colombia, Panama, and Guatemala. However, research regarding the areas, particularly Multifamily Housing Units Social Interest (MHUSI) Mexico, was not found. Thus, this aims analyze wastewater systems MHUSI Xalapa, Veracruz, Mexico. To achieve objective, qualitative exploratory study conducted. involved documentary investigation gather information about background research, well content analysis scrutinize documents such laws, regulations, decrees, Mexican Official Standards. documental focused on search for regulatory documents, decrees standards, both at federal level state municipal level. identifying subsections, fractions articles regulations found water sanitation, environmental impact development applicable revealed mandate have plant situations where it is feasible connect sewage network. use large scale mitigate pollution from discharges identified solution.

As urban centers worldwide face the escalating impacts of climate change, rapid urbanization, and increasing water scarcity, need for sustainable management practices to enhance resilience in Anthropocene has become critical. This study explores how ancient practices—including Roman aqueducts, Maya rainwater harvesting systems, Chinese flood control techniques—can be adapted address contemporary challenges modern cities. We evaluate these historical through a lens environmental pressures, including resource scarcity. By integrating methods with technologies, we propose adaptive solutions resilience. Case studies from five cities (Singapore, Copenhagen, Mexico City, Los Angeles, Philadelphia) illustrate green infrastructure, inspired by techniques, is being successfully implemented manage stormwater, mitigate flooding, improve conservation. technologies—such as advanced filtration systems recycling—these are enhancing their sustainability. The findings suggest that planners can draw valuable lessons design adaptive, climate-resilient balance human needs ecological paper concludes actionable recommendations future planning, emphasizing importance decentralized nature-based solutions, community engagement ensure Anthropocene.
