Abstract—Given the current world´s critical situation of
water demand and quality in metropolitan regions and the need
to implement integrated political-administrative actions among
with the municipalities of the Metropolitan Region of Campinas,
the article proposes the contribution to the analysis of the water
resources context in the referred region, based on literature
references, comprising the insertion and data overlap on maps
generated that allow the integration of the information
Available in each municipality that composes the
institutionalized region. The paper reflects on the heterogeneity
of water related rates in the cities, in how it’s affected by the city
of São Paulo in terms of the water supplying scarcity, and also
how it can affect the host of the upcoming FIFA World Cup.
Index Terms—Metropolitan region of Campinas, water
resources, wastewater, water management, water scarcity.
