dc.description.abstractThe Bio Bio Region is one of Chile’s most populous regions accounting for more than 10 percent of Chile’s population. This report covers adaptation and water management issues in the region in light of natural disasters, such as the earthquake in 2010. Estimates show that at the regional level 200,000 homes either were destroyed or have sustained damage that made them uninhabitable; more than 800,000 people were displaced; and basic services were shut off immediately after the earthquake. Water innovation by means of new technologies and new approaches need to be created, tested, adapted and adopted.en
