El paisaje se situa en el plano de contacto entre los hechos naturales y humanos, ademas, es un producto ecologico, psicologico y social. Su estudio permite incorporar la vision holistica, dialectica y sistemica, propia de la geografia, y se convierte en una via para la formulacion de instrumentos y politicas ambientales en la gestion y la planificacion de cuencas hidrograficas. En esta perspectiva, se presenta la metodologia para identificar unidades de paisajes antropogenicos, asi como la percepcion que los agentes sociales tienen frente a estos, el agua y los ecosistemas en la cuenca hidrografica del rio Dagua, localizada al occidente del departamento del Valle del Cauca, Colombia. Para lo anterior, se emplearon metodos de investigacion cualitativos y cuantitativos. Los resultados evidencian las condiciones de los paisajes, el agua y los ecosistemas, lo cual se convierte en un aporte para futuros procesos de planificacion en la cuenca.

If in the internal area of the States the complexity that wraps the rational use of the waters is enormous, in the actions of international nature the formulation of rules becomes necessary to make possible the harmonious conciliation of particular interests of the involved States. This study aims to analyze the management of transboundary waters of Brazil and Colombia, countries that stand out for their significant water availability and because they share the waters of the Amazon Basin. For this proposal, we intend to analyze the legal framework and institutional arrangements of water resource management specific to these countries, trying to recognize the consistencies and divergences, as well as the challenges and possible improvements in the sustainable management of transboundary waters of Brazil and Colombia, even taking into account the path followed by the two countries regarding the issue, especially around the Amazon Cooperation Treaty.

The current capitalist economic model is increasingly taking hold of natural resources at the global level, including soil, forests and water. In this context, during the last seventy years, the economic elites backed by development policies, have promoted the expansion of the sugar cane monoculture in the department of Valle del Cauca and other regions of Colombia. Thus, wetlands—strategic ecosystems due to the richness of their fauna and flora, landscape beauty, and capacity to serve as a source of livelihood for local communities—are threatened for the expansion of the crop. To understand this process, firstly, we performed a multi-temporal analysis of the land covers which comprise the complex wetland system of the Laguna de Sonso Nature Reserve (from mid-twentieth century to the early twentyfirst century). And, secondly, we incorporated qualitative research techniques. Results allow local knowledge to advance for the protection and conservation of wetlands, as well as in their planning and management.

Se presenta una discusion sobre la condicion esencial del agua en la vida, asi como algunas recomendaciones para conformar estrategias que orienten su gestion. Los conceptos fundamentales a partir de los cuales se hace tal discusion son territorio, ordenamiento territorial y gobernanza. Se destaca como imprescindible, para asegurar el acceso de todas las formas de vida al agua, la formacion de comunidades y sociedades reflexivas y autonomas capaces de gobernar sus vidas y sus territorios, para lo cual, la educacion critica se estima como una estrategia primordial.
