Descripción:This article describes the systematization process of the project titled “Enhancing capacities of Rural Aqueduct Associations (ASADAS) by implementing good practices, techniques, and innovation in community water management.” The article shares the different experiences lived by the extensionists and the significant highlights observed through the process. The project lasted four years and involved 32 community water operators from the Chorotega Region (Costa Rica’s North Pacific region), named ASADAS. Capacity -building processes were individually put in place to reduce vulnerability and define incoming goals addressing specific problems. We could observe differences between the participant water operators at the economic, infrastructure, and administrative levels. Therefore, interventions were adjusted for each ASADA, strengthening the relationship between these water stakeholders and the university.
