(Estado Mexico) Structural analysis to evaluate indicators within IWRM in the "Villa Victoria" watershed (Estado de Mexico)

Given the need to solve water problems, and the great challenges in terms of water management, it is necessary to implement a methodology that is developed from a systemic perspective; where IWRM (Integrated Management of Water Resources) assumes a very important role. The objective of this study was to evaluate the indicators in the PEIR scheme (Pressure, State, Impact, Response) determining factors in the IWRM scenario in the "Villa Victoria" watershed, through the method of structural analysis, using the MICMAC tool (Matriz of Crossed Impacts Matrix Applied to a Classification Through which it was possible to study the relationship of 20 indicators, finding the influential and dependent variables, which were essential to understand the structure and dynamics of the system, where 12 were key. which show that the population is marked by social inequalities that reflect poverty as well as a high marginalization index that exacerbates social inequality in the distribution of services such as coverage of potable water and drainage and in turn population growth also serves as fundamental component that aggravates the insufficiency in the provision of services.
