This research provides analytical routes for the discussion on the compliance of human rights to water and sanitation, from a territorial and gender perspective. We present as an empirical reference of the local problem of access to water and sanitation the rural community of El Mirador, municipality of Zautla, Puebla, Mexico. We point that women are the ones who suffer most from the non-exercise of rights to water and sanitation, because the gender roles. Likewise, we argued about the need to territorialize the definition of the human right to water, adding to the personal and domestic uses, the productive use of backyard for rural territories, because rural areas have specificities, which, if not recognized, by violating the exercise of the human right to water, the right to food would be compromised.
