        Abstract
        "Also available in Portuguese (Manual Sobre os Direitos Humanos à Água Potável e Saneamento para Profissionais), French (Manuel des Droits de l'Homme à l'Eau Potable et à l'Assainissement à l’intention des Praticiens) and Spanish (Manual Sobre los Derechos Humanos al Agua Potable y Saneamiento para Profesionales). The Manual highlights the human rights principles and criteria in relation to drinking water and sanitation. It explains the international legal obligations in terms of operational policies and practice that will support the progressive realisation of universal access. The Manual introduces a human rights perspective that will add value to informed decision making in the daily routine of operators, managers and regulators. It also encourages its readership to engage actively in national dialogues where the human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation are translated into national and local policies, laws and regulations. Creating such an enabling environment is, in fact, only the first step in the process towards progressive realisation. Allocation of roles and responsibilities is the next step, in an updated institutional and operational set up that helps apply a human rights lens to the process of reviewing and revising the essential functions of operators, service providers and regulators. Contents Introduction; Main operational principles; Setting the scene – context and contents of the human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation; Translating the human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation into operational terms; Creating the enabling environment; . Incorporating HRWS into the essential functions of service providers; Addressing sensitive practices, dealing with challenges and avoiding pitfalls."
         
        "El Manual Sobre los Derechos Humanos al Agua Potable y Saneamiento para Profesionales tiene como objetivos: Presentar los principios y conceptos contenidos en las resoluciones de las Naciones Unidas que reconocen el derecho humano al agua potable y el saneamiento (DHAS). Aclarar el lenguaje y la terminología utilizados en la promoción de los derechos humanos, y Proporcionar asesoramiento sobre las funciones y responsabilidades de todos aquellos que contribuyen a la realización progresiva de los DHAS, y sobre cómo los principios y acciones de derechos humanos pueden incorporarse en sus funciones principales. El Manual destaca los principios y criterios relacionados con los derechos humanos en el campo del agua potable y del saneamiento. Explica las obligaciones legales internacionales en términos de políticas y prácticas operativas que respaldarán la realización progresiva del acceso universal. El Manual presenta una perspectiva de derechos humanos que agregará valor a la toma de decisiones informadas en las operaciones diarias de los operadores, gerentes y reguladores. También alienta a sus lectores a participar activamente en los diálogos nacionales para traducir los derechos humanos al agua potable y el saneamiento en políticas, leyes y regulaciones nacionales y locales. La creación de un entorno institucional favorable es, de hecho, sólo el primer paso en el proceso de realización progresiva. La división de roles y responsabilidades es el siguiente paso, en un marco institucional y operativo actualizado que permite aplicar una perspectiva de derechos humanos al proceso de revisión de las funciones esenciales de los operadores, proveedores de servicios y entidades reguladoras."
