This study reveals significant differences in water demand management in Arequipa, Peru, with pricing strategies being dominant in reducing water demand. Household water-saving technologies are uncommon, and awareness campaigns are mainly conducted during periods of water stress. Residents' most demanded actions for improvement are related to water networks, such as leak repair, adequate water pressure, and continuous supply.
Using a socioenvironmental perspective, this paper analyses strategies of water demand management (WDM) in Arequipa, Peru, and their perception by residents through a survey of six city districts (three in the core and three on the periphery) complemented with interviews with key stakeholders. The results show significant differences in WDM. Strategies to reduce demand through pricing are dominant. Domestic water-saving technologies are uncommon, and awareness campaigns are limited to periods of water stress. Despite differences in water access, improvements in water networks (leak repair, adequate water pressure and continuous supply) are the most demanded actions by residents.
