            Abstract
            "Manual Sobre os Direitos Humanos à Água Potável e Saneamento para Profissionais is the Portuguese translation of Manual on the Human Rights to Safe Drinking Water and Sanitation for Practitioners. 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."
             
            "Este Manual coloca em destaque os princípios e critérios dos direitos humanos sobre água potável e saneamento, traduzindo as obrigações legais a nível internacional em termos práticos e de operacionalização das políticas que devem suportar a realização progressiva do acesso universal. O Manual introduz uma perspetiva de direitos humanos que visa acrescentar valor a processos de tomada de decisão no dia-a-dia dos prestadores dos serviços de águas e das entidades reguladoras. O Manual encoraja os leitores a participarem ativamente nos processos que têm lugar nos respetivos Países com vista a transpor os direitos humanos à água potável e ao saneamento para as políticas nacionais e locais, leis e regulamentos. A criação de um ambiente propício é, na verdade, apenas o primeiro passo para a realização progressiva destes direitos. O passo seguinte é a atribuição clara de responsabilidades, num enquadramento institucional e operacional atualizado que promova a análise e a revisão das funções essenciais dos prestadores de serviços e das entidades reguladoras à luz dos direitos humanos.
