MARTINEZ MENDOZA, Abigail  and  ALTAMIRANO SANTIAGO, Mijael. Water policy with a territorial perspective: Central Valleys of Oaxaca. Investig. adm. [online]. 2020, vol.49, n.126, 12607.  Epub Sep 11, 2020. ISSN 2448-7678.  https://doi.org/10.35426/iav49n126.07.

The use and meaning of the territory is analytical and instrumental. The research method is relevant because it allows us to analyze an ancestral symbolic element related to water, which reveals its daily life for good harvests: Cocijo, God of lightning and rain. Among the most important findings is the fact of understanding the territory as a basic unit of analysis for the development of public policies. One of the most limitations was the access to the understanding framework of the people of the area.
