Abstract:
Aiming at subsidizing the elaboration of programs, projects and actions focused on the reuse of water and nutrients, field work with the application of questionnaires was carried out in the Quilombola communities of Mato Grosso do Sul State, considering socioeconomic aspects, housing conditions, water supply, sewage services and health. The results indicated that the communities are sufficiently well organized to make decisions on sanitation matters, which will allow them to choose more sustainable technologies, as well as the diffusion of sanitary and environmental education.
Key words:
basic sanitation; sustainable sanitation; decision-making; health and environmental education; sewage
