En el triángulo norte de Centroamérica, El Salvador muestra el rostro de la desigualdad hídrica: mientras la industria inmobiliaria acapara la poca agua dulce disponible, los grupos populosos y vulnerables siguen recibiendo un servicio deficiente y exigiendo el cumplimiento del derecho humano al agua y saneamiento.
