We are intimately connected to our aquatic ecosystems to achieve water in quality and quantity. The supply and maintenance of sweet water has wide implications for human health and economic development. Meanwhile the participatory water management has a field of research mature in developed countries, in South America those discussion are still academic. I consider that Universities have in their hands a key to socialize the new perspectives of societal search and learning process. Limnology is a science capable to solve a variety of problems in novel and unanticipated ways. Future water management will demand limnologist who are broadly trained to view water bodies as systems that are integrated with the surrounding social-ecological landscape. South America?s countries as well as Argentina need urgently those professionals as a way to avoid a water crisis.
